What are people doing to need 700 applications? If you went to university, usually you'd be able to get an internship after 4-5 applications & a return offer. Then afterwards just stay put when the economy isn't doing well and hop around when it is.

Big vibes of “just walk into all the offices and hand them a paper copy of your resume, people love that kind of initiative!”

Categorically wrong. Graduates exceed jobs/internships (if you pass the ATS gods)

He should have said good graduates with good grades, not middling types that turn up and put name to paper.
