Just curious... you said your best result was "applying directly" after seeing a company on CL, but that emailing the company after seeing on CL was not as successful. In this instance, does "applying directly" mean you went to each company's website and applied on their jobs page? Or did you call them/research and email someone specific/something else?

Yes, "applying directly" means that I went to the company's website, found the job opening, and applied from there. Generally that approach involved more research because I was actually able to browse their website and see exactly what they do.

When I say "emailing through Craigslist", I mean that the job listing did not have the name of the company, so my only option was to email them through CL.
