yep! most positions usually takes only a few minutes to apply to, and some are quicker than others.

Thats crazy to me. It takes am an hour to apply to one job, including finding some kind of a match, and some jobs are disproportionally harder due to weird questions.

Same here. The only 'few minutes' ones are the 'easy apply' ones on linkedin, etc. The others range from 20 minutes to an hour.
