Edit slightly: I actually agree that the shotgun way works quite well, I wrote this book over a year and a bit and my opinions have changed a lot the more - I've learnt things. A lot of the recruitment industry is less "well, this way is perfect" and more "well... it depends". If you want to work for the big 4 of tech, well, yeah, you need to focus on them. But if you just want a job, the shotgun approach works well.

My article failed to talk about this, but I'm going to edit it
