Over a period of two years, attempts were made to obrain information on employment opportunities through personnel departments, college recruiting departments and public relations departments of hundreds of companies. These organizations will not provide any information on current employment opportunites, but rather encourage applicants to send a cover letter and resume. Most of these organizations stated they would contact the applicant within 30 days if they are interested in arranging an interview.
