14 apps

I've submitted 14 apps for 14 different teaching jobs in the fall over the past 2-3 weeks. All of them are within my subject area and none of them are in dream places, but that's ok, pay your dues. It is a tough job applying for all of these jobs. Thankfully there is a standard application for all of these jobs, but I like to custom tailor each cover letter and do research on all of these schools to show my interest. 14 apps and 3 rejections so far.

I've also toyed around with different resumé formats and can't settle on one I like, so I am sticking with my original.
