I am nearing the end of a 12 month contract in Europe (paid in Euros, weak Sterling means I am quids in smile) and have made a few applications for my next position.

In my sector (Pharmaceuticals and drug development), in my experience, I have to typically make 10-15 applications to secure 2-3 interviews and hopefully get an offer of employment from one of those.

I was wondering if the above figures were representative of other sectors (construction, legal, whoring, IT etc etc), or have I got it all wrong? Am I lucky?
