This market tracks the number of jobs that I apply to during the week of Monday, July 20 through Sunday, July 26 for which I receive an interview invitation or request to schedule an interview before the end of August.
I have this other market you should check out for reference. It has the number of jobs I've applied to in the same week.
The count at creation is 2. Both are jobs over 1,000 miles away that would require me to relocate, but they would not agree to a virtual first interview, only wanted an in-person one. So I still haven't gotten an interview scheduled yet. I'll post updates when I hear back from any more of them.

@traders Update: I received two more interview invitations, one from a job I applied to on July 22 and another from a job I applied to on July 26, bringing the total to 6.
@Quroe I guess not. It looks like someone had bought the 4-5 option down after my update, just not all the way.
@traders Update: I got an email to set up a phone interview from a job I applied to on July 20, so the new total is 4.
@traders Update: A job I applied to on Wednesday asked me to schedule a phone interview, bringing the total to 3.
I had a company get back to me after about 6 months after my application. And yes, they did keep the job listing active that entire time. Refreshing the listing too!
@Quroe I'll resolve at the end of August. Any that get back to me later than that won't count for this market. (Have to draw the line somewhere.)
what if <2? I've personally seen response rates of <1% for awhile edit nvm I read the desc now lol
@Quroe I've been applying to a lot of entry-level warehouse and logistics jobs. Much closer to "Fast food worker" than to "Anthropic employee".
