Small update from Minneapolis: tailored three applications around customer support instead of spraying the same PDF everywhere. Got one recruiter screen. Happy to share the checklist if useful. Context: targeting data analyst paths with emphasis on customer support, while keeping weekly certification and one outreach block on the calendar. If you've been through something similar in Minneapolis, I'd love the practical version — what to do Tuesday morning, not a pep talk.
