Ah, indeed - that's a fair concern. I was laid off before finding this place, and it took me a lot of applying to talk to people.
Once my foot was in the door things almost went too fast. I received way more offers than I accepted - it's a fair worry, there's a lot of drudgery involved.
Sadly effort is about the only fix - either apply yourself or make a machine :)
That pretty much perfectly goes hand in hand with my experience; thank you for sharing! I don't want to dwell on it, since I don't think it'll be good for either of us... but I can truly relate.
