Do your home work looking for a job

Do you know what companies you are applying to or have applied to? Nothing is worse than telling a recruiter "what company is this...I sent my resume where?"

To avoid confusion make sure that you are keeping track of what jobs you are applying to and what type of position it is that you applied for. You want to make sure that you are prepared when you pick up the phone and a recruiter is on the other end wanting to speak with you about your background. Never tell a recruiter that you don't remember who the are because you have sent so many resumes out, this is one way to get unnoticed quickly. Keep a spreadsheet or a list of companies that you have applied to and the job descriptions near the phone this way you are prepared to take calls.
