Aside from reading 80K’s collected work on the subject, I’d recommend Ask A Manager’s “How to Get a Job” and Ramit Sethi’s work on job-hunting (frustratingly, this is spread across many posts, so there’s no one thing for me to link, but if you browse his recent posts, you’ll get the gist.
There’s also this article (especially point #3) and this post (used to be free; not sure what the price is now, but it’s worth at least as much as a good book on job-hunting).
These are, collectively, what made me feel most comfortable and confident when writing resumes, writing cover letters, and preparing for interviews; this doesn’t mean that they counterfactually caused me to get any jobs I wouldn’t have gotten otherwise (I honestly don’t know whether that’s true).
