Sending more CVs does not always increase your chances.
Your CV, LinkedIn, positioning, application strategy, networking and interview preparation need to work together.
Sometimes the issue is not how many vacancies you apply for, but how your profile is presented and the strategy used to reach the right opportunities.
The goal is not simply to search for more vacancies. It is to build a stronger professional strategy for the market you want to reach.
