Either the job market has dried up or I'm not bringing what they're looking for. Going into my 3rd interview since graduating. Can't seem to seal the deal. I'm super discouraged, anyone else struggling to land a job?

Job market is absolutely very dry right now, so I take a deep breath, and know you are not alone in it! I haven’t been job searching, but have a former coworker who is, and it has been extremely tough for them as well, and they have an amazing resume and work experience!

You are competing with the same profile with more YoE. Some desperate to get cash flow and selling talent and time at fire sale prices.

Election and rate cuts will loosen things up.

Hold tight and keep grinding!

I had a first interview last Tuesday with Amazon, which I think went well, although I still haven't heard back 6 days later and then got an OOO annual leave msg and a no response when I chased up the named colleague today.

I found Google and Facebook recruiters to be efficient and TikTok so-so, if not a little slow, but 6 days+ seems poor.

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate. That was 1.5 years ago and I am still in the limbo of juggling my own workload + doing assistant roles for my supervisors. I have also had no increase in pay, which is a huge deal for me. Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
