Hey everyone, I was recently in the second round of interviews for a Quantitative Analyst position at Blue Cross Blue Shield in Kansas. Unfortunately, I just received an email informing me that they are no longer pursuing my candidacy due to finding another suitable applicant. I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered difficulties in their job search. It's disheartening to come so close to securing a position and then have it slip away. I'm curious to hear others' experiences and strategies for navigating the current job market.
The job market sucks. As an applicant this is worst since 2001. It is not going to get better because Supply > Demand.
