Hi mrowsom, 

Two questions ---

1) Do you want to know how much TIME or how much MONEY a person spends?
2) Are you talking about someone who is currently EMPLOYED or UNEMPLOYED?

OK lets change this a little... How many resumes does the average job
seeker send out and how many of those go to businesses rather then
Recruiters?

A: more than $8.
B: Less than their current employer thinks they're spending.

When I'm out of work I spend about 4 hours a day searching on-line
sites and newspapers (in my local library) for job opportunities. In
recent years my financial outlay has been very low - a couple of books
of stamps and some paper - no more than £10 (about $16 these days)

When I'm in work I never look for another job until the current one is
finished.
