Some of us are looking for well over a year and don’t even have a job.
I'm the first to say if my bills are paid, I'm happy ... but Jeez Louise, I'm not taking a 30% pay cut on a gamble. McCain was a POW for 5 years. I can survive a crappy gig for a while longer.
Oh McCain I thought you said McCann
Yes - been looking for two years. Only got a handful of interviews and one way lowball offer followed by ghosting when I pushed back.

Last year I accepted a job with a step-down in pay and title. I was a steady freelancer for 4 years, then in late 2023 the work just dried up. I have a good book and good network, but it still took like 9 months to get hired even with a title drop - recruiters think freelancers are just unemployed, and the bias against hiring unemployed people is real and gross. I hate my job, and am still looking. I do have a way easier time getting in the door purely by having a job. same book and everything.
