Depends. Hit it both ways. The problem is most, if not all companies these days will kindly take your resume and scan it so they can view it electronically. Why electronically? So they can run some stupid app to search for keywords in your resume. Sucks, huh? If you want to know whether they do this or not, ask them if they scan them. If they ask you why you are asking, tell them you will use a more readable font for their scanner.
Phredgreen's got da shit! Follow through is really important. They need to know you didnt sent out 200 resumes and are surfing porn waiting for a telephone call. Get you clean and polished self in the office for a face to face hello. It sure helps.
