Do you ready the full job description before applying?

1. Yes
2. No, I just quickly look it over
3. I focus on the title only

It’s the only way to tailer the cover letter.

I used to skim read first then if it seemed like a good fit or had obvious keywords I was looking for would then go back and read thoroughly
