Honestly, I don't know if I really benefit from job search advice because a lot of it is so contradictory. The things that aren't contradictory are usually just common-sense, like don't have typos in your resume.

Some employers might see follow-ups as desperate and impatient, but others might see it as showing initiative and assertiveness. Some might find it annoying, but others may be disorganized and need the reminders. Some might not know how to make a hiring decision and base it on how "interested" the candidates are, which can come in the form of stupid criteria like how aggressively they follow up.
