What happens to your submission after you submit it to an agent?
I've always kind of wondered--does the agent read it him/herself? Do they make interns read it? A bunch of interns? Is there a maybe pile? I'm just curious because I know how agencies do queries but I don't really know how most usually do subs.
I'm also kind of curious because the delivery timestamp on my sub that I sent recently (I get delivery timestamps to know when to CNR or to resend after a situation last year caused me to probably lose a good shot at representation) shows that it was opened several times since I sent it, but I have no response as of yet.
