Maria, your resume is final and your first 5 jobs are in, each with pay posted by the employer. Watch for the heads-up notes: one job has a commute close to your limit, and one starts below your pay floor at the low end. The Parsippany firm is the one to look at first: it's about 20 minutes away and they ask for exactly your ADP experience. Mark each job Yes, No or Question. For every Yes, you'll get a resume and cover letter tailored for that job, usually within about an hour, and within 1 business day at most.
