Find Job Online

Mscatchall asked:


After a recent corporate layoff, I’m searching for a job. I notice that when applying to jobs where the headquarters is located in another state, I am sending my resume into a giant “resume machine” through the company’s website. The protocol seems to be the headquarters will evaluate and send the best resumes to the local offices around the country/world. How can I follow up and find out if if the local office of such a big company has received and is reviewing my resume and cover letter?

I am graduating from college this month and have been applying for jobs for the past month or so. My current location doesn’t offer many job opportunities so the vast majority of jobs I have applied for are out of state. How do I convince employers in my cover letter to hire an out-of-state and entry-level candidate? I’m not expecting my relocation expenses to be paid.
Yes, of course being a college graduate finding a job has it’s own set of challenges, those I know how to handle. If you don’t have a real answer then please don’t respond.
