I've submitted several hundred applications over the past almost 7 months, have had 4 interviews in that time, and a handful of recruiter calls. I've been fortunate enough to land interviews at Microsoft and Google, so I know the value is there, but interviews don't pay the bills.
I can't speak for everyone, but on the hiring side, my goal is to interview 3-5 candidates, then make a decision. If we don't get anyone that works, we go back and re-evaluate the posting to make sure it's getting at what we need, and work with the recruiters on specific feedback before doing another round.
There are other roles I've been on the hiring panel for, where the leader is looking for a purple unicorn, and has interviewed 20+ people.
