It doesn't matter what job you apply to and it never has
Interesting post from Heather Leigh at Microsoft on how recruiters try to find the right person from a stack of incoming resumes. She says that the particular position the person originally applied for is very unimportant compared to keyword matches, the general impression of their resume, etc.
Worth a read.
I guess the general lesson, as always, is to try to write in a way that will make sense to your audience.
