Job Search Numbers from the Other Side

What’s the view from the other side of a job-search story like William’s?

These are the numbers one employer recalled after advertising a job…

100 people applied for this job
20 people contacted or spoke to me twice
6 people came back or asked questions a third time
3 people got in touch with me 4 or more times
1 person came back so many times I lost count

Who do you reckon she offered the job to?
