I've always used the "10%" rule:

Of the companies you apply to, 10% will get back to you.

Of those 10%, 10% will result in an offer.

My last job search (conducted 2017) bore this out: I applied to about 90 or so companies, got 8 interviews, and one offer. I have about 20 years of experience in tech.
