I don’t have referrals but the job market here is really bad lately. You are competing against Americans with 2x the experience and even they are having a hard time in this market. Don’t give up and good luck.
Tough market, lots of product managers and middle level management getting laid off in Bay Area tech.
Recruiters are desperate and will submit you to any and every job posting out there, so I wouldn’t expect most of them to work out anyway. Ghosting you because they are mass submitting just hoping for something to stick.
Work visa is the issue. No one wants to sponsor on this climate when they can have a dozen more choices without the hassle.
Unfortunately ghosting is extremely common. At this point I assume I’m going to get ghosted by recruiters unless they want to move forward. It sucks but don’t take it personally, it happens to everyone. Are you focused on any specific industry?
I am open to all types of industries so as to maximize the num of jobs I can apply for.
