I'm curious about how people go about searching for a new job. Especially regarding tools and processes... how did you do it in your last job search?
--- For me, last time it was location-based. I picked a city where I wanted to live and looked for all the architecture offices in that city on Google or Architizer;
looked at all offices' websites to see how I liked it; applied to all of them, either to job openings or unsolicited. didn't really look at job boards...
I kept track of everything on a Google Sheet. I had an email template where I changed some information to make it more "personal" for each application. I sent the same portfolio and resume PDF to every company. My email inbox was a mess with so many emails with the same subject line.
Got some interviews, but found the job with one of the unsolicited applications.
(BTW, that was back in 2010...) ---
How about you? How did you do it the last time? Or, if you are currently looking, what's your process?
