I know the job market is terrible but this is crazy. 3 months to the day since I got laid off, submitted job application #300 in that time today. I’m growing frustrated and running out of savings. Not really sure what to do. Am I doing something wrong? FEE with 8+ YOE and I’ve had 1 interview, which did not result in an offer#engineering #software #swe .
It’s a bizarre season indeed. Also no luck here and I’ve been applying like crazy and still have a job.
Keep that job as long as you can!
Got laid off December…. Still nothing
I am applying since past 3/4 weeks - got only one interview. All the jobs i applied were 100% match to my current job. Salary offered is pretty low as well.
Entering a software winter. I heard software jobs are down 40% since the pandemic, which tracks. Worse yet, new grads have even less opportunity
I couldn’t imagine trying to break into the market now with no work experience
In bad job markets, it takes a year to find a job, especially for high paying jobs. Also, you need to be fully flexible in terms of location and companies.

Front died a while ago. Might have to add salesforce to your resume to get interviews.
There’s no shortage of job postings for Frontend. Like I said, filled out about 300 Frontend specific applications
Not all job listings are real.
