They do a great job of sharing enough content, but not overwhelming my stream - which other brands have done (earning an "unfollow all" click from me!) I totally agree with you on Real Simple.

Informational interviews are a great way to get your foot in the door. If you create an advocate through the informational, they can often times send a note to the hiring manager! Hi Rachel,

I always look on LinkedIn to see if any of my contacts might be able to introduce me to someone within the organization--that way the hiring manager can put a face to your name on your resume or if you meet with someone other than the hiring manager you can reference them in your cover letter to make you stand out.
