"a. people are applying with no intention of following through, just to satisfy the unemployment requirements that you be actively looking for a job;"
Bingo, P=0.92
Shotgunning random resumes all count as "job contacts."
Leaning over the fence and chatting with Farmer Joe about hiring you as his tractor-washing guy is also a job contact. But it's provable if you send him a resume, even if he wasn't looking for a tractor-washing guy.
"Hey, Dr. MillCreek, you need an all-around 'guy Friday' of moderate intelligence and has a tendency to spout extreme right-wng bullbleep at the sightest provocation? I'm your man."
There, see? An actual, legally-satisfying job contact and something I'm qualified for, to boot.
Letter of the law, doncha know.
I'm not signing this one so nobody will know who posted it.
