100? are you selective?

lime tiger Jan 20, 2026, 9:02 PM

#

not at all, i apply to basically everything

#

well i try and keep to stuff within like the midwest but yeah im not that selective

#

2 interviews came from applying through conference, and 2 came from cold applying

4 out of 100 is what I expect the hit rate of a good candidate.

#

well i mean

#

i'm still 0/4 with offers so

#

i guess it's not always the case 😭

#

0 offers / 4 interviews is not strange, imo

#

for 1 headcount, employers interview 10+ candidates

yeah that's true, i think a lot of it is attributed to me tweaking my resume a LOT though
