Is anyone else applying for lots of jobs and getting very little interviews. And almost no offers after 2nd interviews? I've been at this since Jan, applying for jobs similar or lower than what I hold. 6 YOE in accounting consulting, made it to director of sales for a small local firm and now a controller at a bigger firm. Just getting frustated with the process, working with unprofessional recruiters. I am in San Diego, and I've felt pretty good after the few interviews I had. Suggestions?

Youre not alone! Exactly the same. Especially with unprofessional recruiters. 🙄 Just keep hustlin! I work on my CV and build my referral network literally every single day! Stay consistent, know your professional worth, and eventually you will get exactly what you’re looking for!

Well sorry to hear y'all are going through the same and that this is the trend... My network is limited ever since I took this fully remote job and got out of the local scene. I'll continue to apply and reach out to old connections. Good luck!

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.
