You don't say which camera you are using, but lightroom knows. If you choose either the camera standard profile or the camera (vivid or vibrant - forget term) it will apply the correct one for your camera - at least it does for my three Nikons.
When Lightoom first imports your raw it briefly shows the embedded jpeg that is in the raw file before it renders the full raw version. You can set default settings for it to always apply. For example if you always want to boost the saturation, or the sharpness or other settings it is possible to save that as an action to apply on every import. That way you don't have to start from scratch each time.
