I was extremely overqualified and had automated my work as a contractor and when that was discovered instead of getting fired I got hired upwards to be a support agent for the app for the entire company running them.

I dunno. Jobs and applications are weird. I think it's mostly on knowing people.

absolutely! I was told at a career workshop that simply being recognised amounts for as much as 80% of hires.

And yeah I can definitely see it, when you go out to buy something you're probably going to buy the same things as you did before aren't you?
