I'm currently employed, but want a new job. I've been looking tentatively since June after I found out my HNC grades, and ideally want to start in a perhaps junior mechanical design position from which I can progress.
I'm sick of recruiters and their total inability to call back/follow up/do what they say they will, and have wasted hours of my time jumping through their various hoops.
As a result, I've had enough and am considering blanketing local firms with my CV. Ideally I want a design position, but to be honest anything where there's the opportunity for progression will do (for the short term at least).
What is the best way to approach this? Should I focus my CV/covering letter on design and hope, or should I hedge my bets and try to keep it a little more general and hope something interesting comes up (but at the same time aiming at a design position)?
What would you suggest is the best way to go about this - posting my CV off or mailing HR via websites?
Cheers.
