I guess this could just as easily be posted in an anti-work community
The tech hiring market is most definitely NOT hot right now. It’s the worst it’s been since the 2008 crisis aftermath.
Obviously there are still things out there but companies are hiring less and the market is flooded with big tech layoffs. Companies are being flooded with applications for available roles.
Startups are also struggling to raise which means there are less new jobs in startups too.
If you’re in STEM it’s really not a problem. I feel for others in auxiliary roles though.
I have over a decade of experience in software engineering and am struggling to find a new job at the moment. Every other time I’ve looked in the past it’s been way easier.
Obviously I could have a job if I wanted, but if you don’t want to compromise on role/pay then things are really tough at the moment.
