Honestly, when I was looking- I didn’t even count. When I had the energy, I was push them out.
I don’t have a carefree approach because when you’re applying to a lot of jobs, it’s an additional job to track them. I basically scheduled my days/ week on applying for jobs and the rest of my daily tasks. I was unemployed (full time) for 5 months and then landed two jobs (I was OE for a bit). One role I applied on their website, I located them through indeed and the other was on their website, I located them through LinkedIn. My current role I applied via their website and located them via LinkedIn. I’ve landed jobs through easy/ quick apply before, so I use all methods. I frequent indeed because it is still the number one job board. I’ve also noticed that roles are parsed from the ATS to their website quicker than to LinkedIns website. I still utilize zip recruiter, monster and career builder as well. For my previous two roles, I landed one in June and one in July. My new role, I landed in early august and started in September.
The first two weeks I put in as many as I had time to "customize" my resume, were a good fit, and I knew were good companies. I made sure to go directly to company site, apply for jobs i was at least 80% qualified, and use like keywords in my resume. For example if the ad requested Microsoft Office skills I changed Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc. to read Microsoft Office. Most days that was three resumes. I saved the career job search link in a document. I saved a copy of the ad, added a date, etc. This helped me avoid re-applying. The third week I was less selective on companies and had my pattern down. I used the job alerts I sat up the first week to go to hiring companies and had a decent list of companies on my daily job search. I reached out to former coworkers and let it be known that i was looking. I noticed a pattern in when companies posted jobs and by the fourth week could have been more efficient in my search but had second interviews lined up. I think one day on my second week I found 10 jobs to apply for that I was qualified and wanted. That was one day and a virtual job fair. By late week 3 I had enough requests for interviews I backed off and expanded my spreadsheet to compare all benefits (salary, PTO, holidays, medical, work environment, drive time, desire etc). I printed off the job ad, wrote notes on it, printed off extra resumes, bought some plain folders with pockets. I went to the job with the folder, a pen, extra resumes. After/during each interview I made notes. Stored any handouts I was given. Thankfully I never had to job search during December early January. I feel that would have added more days to the search. Who you know will get you a job the quickest. Reach out to contacts. Let them know you are looking for "specific type of job". They will let you know of anything closely related. I got the third job I applied and the second interviewed with. For the next six months I received calls. Several were.. you applied for job A but we filled it but now have job B.

Depends on the job advertised on the job sites

As many jobs that match my resume
When I was on the job market I tried to do 5 per day that were targeted to roles and companies I was interested in.

However many appropriate new positions appear. On average probably about 0.05
about 5 a day

As many as I vaguely qualify for. You will rarely if ever be a perfect match. Competent hiring managers know this.
