Gmail was a great tool for job hunting because I was able to easily communicate with multiple leads at once. However, Gmail saved me in a way that I didn't expect. I was offered two jobs at the same time. One was from a company that I wanted to work for and I felt was a great fit for me. The second offer was for another company that I wasn't as enthusiastic about but offered me significantly more money. I took the job that offered more money and hated every minute of it for two months. Thanks to the archive feature, I still had all the contact information of the hiring manager at the other company. I emailed them and they made me an offer. I may be making less, but I'm much happier!
