Advice (in video form!):
Monty Python - Silly job interview:

"You win!" :-)
(The entire Universe works on only 3 principles -- Push, Pull, and Balance (John Ernst Worrell Keely)... Balance is basically "letting go". If Pushing to get what you want in a specific circumstance doesn't work, try Pulling... If Pulling doesn't work to get what you want in a specific circumstance, try Pushing... but perhaps most importantly, if neither Pushing nor Pulling work -- then try "letting go" (that is, let the Universe decide where it wants to go!))
In the video above, The Nerds wisely realized that they did not have the raw strength to beat the Jocks in the Tug-Of-War!
So did they try with all of their intent, all of their strength, all of their effort -- to somehow win the Tug-Of-War against the Jocks?
No they didn't!
They simply timed their move exactly right, and they "let go" -- at the most inopportune time for the Jocks!
"You win!" says the nerd Harold Wormser (played by Andrew Cassese) so eloquently, after the strength that the Jocks used is "used against them" -- and they have all fell down upon one another!

Point is -- you have jobs that require interview after interview after interview... filling out bureaucratic form after bureaucratic form... and going through that process only for a chance (not a guarantee!) to get hired at the end of it...
Then, on the other side of the spectrum, you have jobs which only require a handshake.
I prefer jobs towards the handshake side of the spectrum (a few forms and a few interviews are OK) than the bureaucratic
thousands of interviews and thousands of forms side, and then only for the chance at getting a job -- not for a guarantee...
Also, does anyone at companies requiring 10+ interviews actually do any work?
How could they, if everyone working for the company is interviewing everyone who's applying for the company, all of the time?
Maybe they should create a future company called "The Interview Company" -- their tagline could be something like:
"We interview people for your company... so you don't have to..." :-)
You know, outsourced interviewing... which could then be used for outsourced labor... everything could be outsourced -- and AI could handle the rest... <g> :-) <g>
