[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone ever apply for 1-2 positions and get one (in this economy)? I am not someone who is interested in applying to every attorney job out there just because I COULD do the work because I am positive that there are people who ACTUALLY do that work (and know people on the inside) who will stand out. But I'm seeing 1-2 positions that actually fit my experience so I'm motivated to apply and see if I know anyone there -- but it seems like such a longshot when you hear people saying, I applied to 100+ jobs before I got one. Is the gov't seeing the same problem as private companies in this regard -- i.e. I have heard hiring managers complain that they may get 2000 resumes for one spot but maybe a handful actually have the right experience while the rest are just aspirational.[/quote] Yes. If you apply only for jobs that are a great match then you have an excellent chance at at least an interview, at least in my experience. [/quote]
