Well, not quite like that, but my state is okay with that.
They send you a form called "WorkSearch Activity Log" which you have to complete on a weekly basis. You list, in the spaces provided, the date you make the contact; the name, addresss and phone number of the employer/agency/service; how you make the contact (in person, phone, mail, web, and fax are specifically listed at examples) and the results ("Pending" is an acceptable response. Responding to an ad on Monster is a perfectly acceptable method of conducting a search.
Again, in my state, which is not the poster's. Or Patty's.
