what kind of applications are you writing?
Writing applications is very difficult and stressful.
I always send the same application text for whichever job I'm applying for, in the style of "I'm ans Meganical Engineer whomth graduated in 2015, I can handle these three CAD software and I can do this and that and I can bust my gat etc." The same basic elements are relevant for almost every position so the same text works for most of them.
I only ever do minimal application tailoring such as briefly explaining my motivation for a particular job and things like that but I keep 60 to 100% of the text the same every time
That might work for Mechanical Engineering jobs where you are
a) an expert for a specific position, doing a technical thing and
b) not expected to be creative or use fancy words.
Doesn't workt that well if you're
a) an intern without a specific skillset
b) applying to somewhat different places because you're still figuring things out
c) in a creative field where you're expected not to use standard phrases and documents.
I thought you are writing an app. You are applying at jobs.
I just open at the morning karriere.at to look for new positions and spam everyone with my cv. If cover letter required I just put there my cv again. I am too lazy to write motivational letters since it usually doesn't pay off. Usually send 5-10 applications per day.
