One of the keys to a successful six-figure job search is staying organized.
One good strategy is to create an Excel spreadsheet with the following columns for the companies you contact:
- The name of the company
- Their mailing address
- Their main phone number
- The name of the person you will contact
- Their job title
- The URL where their information was found (like a database profile or a business journal article)
- Their website URL
You might also include a column for any quick notes about the company (with the operative word being quick).
If you found the company's information through a database, also record your search criteria, so that you don't end up doing the same search three weeks from now.
