A 4 x 6 inch, lined index card is usually suitable. You can use the back of the card to write additional notes. Also, attach a copy of the position announcement, your cover letter and resume to the card. Your goal is to keep all of the information regarding each position organized and in a central location. There are several database programs that will also help you to organize this information. How you keep track of the information is not important. Just choose a method that will be easy for you to use.
