Resumes

Alright, for those of you who are hiring out there, how many resumes do you get when you throw your opening into the waters? 100? 200? More??

Now how many of those do you actually read? NOW how many do you go through until they all start looking the exact same and you get bored and decided to throw them in the air and whichever one lands in a circle is the one you hire? haha

I ask this, because I am curious what some people are sending out to set themselves apart. I've heard of some people doing video resumes, I've heard some are just badgering the crap out of people, some are even doing camp-outs in front of studios.

What works for you?
 
I'm interested to know this, too. How do you get recognized when so many are looking? What is the best way to stand out from the others from a PD perspective? I don't like being pushy, but is that what it takes?
 
For my first radio gig. It was during my teenage years. All I did was e-mail the program director of the station asking if they had job openings. He liked my energy and enthusiasim for radio and they had me come in and observe and after awhile I a job.
