I have to ask... were any of them written in crayon? (Yes, I'm being both
serious and funny.) I just cannot fathom anyone actually doing such things, and
honestly expecting to find a real job. Good grief.
As for getting 450 responses to local ads... a lot of papers publish
Classifieds online. I am curious if you still remember the geographic area those
resume's came from... were they all from within 20-50 miles of you, or did they
come from just about everywhere?
