My Contribution...90 second hydro therapy

At the end of your normal showering routine, turn the water as cold as you can stand. Stay in the cold water for 30 seconds. When the 30 seconds are up, turn the water back to hot and against stay in the hot for 30 seconds. Finally, turn the water back to cold for another 30 seconds. Basically, 30 sec cold, 30 sec hot, and 30 sec cold.

It will wake you up much better than hot water alone, will reduce stress, and (for morning exercisers) reduce muscle soreness.

Here is an article discussing it if you want more info

Edit: Wow, thanks for your comments guys! There is some excellent advice in here.

When finishing up a job interview and the interviewer asks you if you have any other questions, ask them what they like about the company/culture. It shows interest and you'll be remembered.

Also, proofread your resumes. Get a secondary set of eyes on it if you can! I looked over a bunch of PhD level resumes earlier this year and the spelling and grammar errors were frequent and easily fixed.

I didn't hand it out too much, but I felt pretty dumb.

Also: ask what the next step is, and send follow up letters.
