Hmm... A little over a year ago I enrolled in an interview prep program that was open to all levels of experience. I don't have as many as 17 years, but around 8 years which is still past junior/entry at this point.

Part of the program's requirement was that you apply to 25 jobs per week. In order to maintain that number, I had to send some of my resumes cold, usually via LinkedIn job listings.

I didn't get a good response rate but I just did it to meet that 25 per week quota. And if anyone's curious, no, I do not have a job yet after enrolling in that program.
