Check out this great article on searching for a job in tough times. I agree with everything in this article except for the part about spending four hours on your resume for each job you apply for.
I believe that it’s best to spend a lot of time upfront on a targeted resume, but you should only need 15 to 20 minutes to tweak your resume for a specific job.
However, if you are applying for jobs in different fields, you should spend the time to create a tailored resume for each career you are interested. By the way you might want to consider a professional resume writer.
