1k job applications since June I'm ready for the inevitable end

700+ applications and multiple recruiting companies later and still only 3 interviews since May. With almost a decade of software development experience. It's actually a little reassuring that I'm not alone here and it's not just a problem with me. Best of luck in your search friend!
