I applied for ~10 roles. Finally got a recruiter call. 3 months, 5 interviews later - I got a job!

Got a call for the first one I applied to, didn't make it. 3 applications later, now interviewing again. Fingers crossed

Are they all similar roles? If you’re applying to too wide a variety it’ll look like your reaching for anything vs applying your skill set.
