Reminded me of a friend who had applied to over 1,000 job openings in LinkedIn in 2019 and got zero response from them.

Then he decided to take the risk and run his own business, which is starting to gain some traction right now after the covid crisis.

Zero responses or zero offers? I find it hard to imagine not one of the 1000 positions he applied to wouldn’t even bother to respond provided he is qualified (or even in the ballpark) for the the job.
