If a lot of people with experience are out of jobs and can't land one, what's the hope for entry-level people like myself, who are finding it difficult to land a role because of the same experience?

It's hard for everyone right now, regardless of your work experience. If it makes you feel any better, I think you honestly might have a better shot than people like me who have been in the workforce for years. Our expected salaries are apparently pricing us out of a lot of job opportunities, which shouldn't hold true for greener candidates. Things are still pretty bleak no matter what, but hang in there and keep applying. You'll find something sooner or later.

I applied for a job at Visa and was contacted the same day. A few days later I had a 30-minute screening interview with the hiring manager. I knew I was very early in the process since the job had only been posted for a few days. It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard back, even after reaching out to the recruiter. Have I been ghosted or is there still hope? Does anyone at Visa have insights? Looks like there are a ton of jobs posted so maybe they are just backed up?

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

Is it bad manners or just a bad idea to go back to a recruiter if they got you a job that wound up being a bad fit?
For context, I don’t think they misled me. The job changed 3 weeks after I got hired, and got stuck in a role that’s just not a good fit. Gave it 6 months of honest effort and I’m ready to start job hunting.
I saw this recruiter make a post on LinkedIn, and I liked working with them the first time, and I want to reach out. But I don’t know what they’ll think.
