Try applying for ~100 jobs a day instead of 2.
- MsgingABottle 10y agoI've done some mass-applying with things like AngelList, but generally I like to take the time to research a company, write a thoughtful cover letter, etc. It'd be hard to do that 100 times a day, especially if I'm going to do anything else with my day. Do you think quantity is more important than quality?

- throwaway26960 10y agoI don't think you can judge quality until you're actually employed. The best looking jobs on the surface turned out to be some of the worst jobs I've ever worked. There's a lot of similarities between dating and finding a job, heh.
- ng12 10y agoFor you, no. Sad truth is a lot of companies are biased against interviewing bootcamp graduates because it's a total crapshoot. Anything you can do to make your resume or application prove your not brain-dead is really going to help.
- jefflombardjr 10y agoI totally disagree. (respectfully) If you're applying to 100 jobs a day, you have no idea what you want to do. There may be 100 'developer' jobs to apply to, but a JavaScript Developer and Java Developer Position are drastically different positions. Pick one and get good at it. You might not be able to apply to 100 jobs a day this way, but I guarantee you will get more interviews this way. Quality, not quantity.
