How many networking calls do you receive?

Hi Guys,

Was just wondering that as there is a huge discrepancy between the number of applicants for a role in IB and the number of roles and all the applicants are trying to network as best they can how many networking calls does that result in for those already working?

Would love to hear your experience (please specify if you are coming from a US/UK/EU perspective)

Thanks,
