In This Current Job Market
You will be lucky if its recipient spends more than 15 seconds reading your paperwork.
It takes 100 to 200 resumes to land a job.
It will take 15 to 20 phone calls to get one interview. 1 out of 12 informational interviews will land a job.
It takes approximately 30 interviews to land a job (3-5 months).
80% of jobs are found in the "Hidden Job Market." That means they will never be posted.

Take care,
