Current job whatsoever. If I did happen to land the other job I'm looking at, I would not be submitting any more apps. Even if they started me at the low end of their salary range, the benefits would be good and there would be room for growth. It's a local govt job and about ten minutes from the house. As with any job, I'm sure there are a hundred applicants I'm competing with. Can't let that stop me from trying though.
