Looking for a job? How do you manage all the information?

[DAM]

So, I will be graduating soon, and I am in the process of applying for jobs, interviewing etc etc. What I would like to know if there is some software out there that will help me manage all this, like manage contacts, resumes, cover letters, email correspondence and notes.

I think I saw something like this on Slashdot once, but I can not find it for the life of me, so if anyone have any tips please let me know.

Thanks.

I kept track of everything from the name of the company, contact phone numbers/email addresses, when I applied, when i intereviewed, etc

Oh comon man, you just graduated from college and you can't keep track of some simple job contacts?

It is not just a simple job contacts, I have a slew of information, where I met someone, what we talked about, who they know, who they worked with, etc etc.

Create a simple Access DB. Or Excel will do just fine. How about a PDA?
