Is it just me or has the market been more competitive when it comes to hiring? Candidates I am speaking to are in multiple final stages!

This is the opposite of what I have been experiencing. I have been reaching out and people have been jumping at the jobs, even if the job is revealed to not be a great match for their lifestyle. People just want work.

Tech recruiting is on the up surprisingly even with the layoffs.

I’ve consistently been interviewing with 2+ teams at a time since being laid off. Just haven’t landed an offer yet. The market is strange right now. Just depends on the functional team they’re interviewing with I guess

Thank you! I’ve actually just received an offer last week. I’m going client+brand side 😊

I suspect there’s a lot more interviewing going on as people start to have some insight into 24 needs. But I don’t think hiring itself is up to speed yet.

Yeah I was kind of thinking the same…

It must depend on the industry as I'm not getting anything at all, and neither are my friends.

Yeah I know Recruiting is still impacted negatively.

It's you.

Maybe… bad problem to have a a a recruiter but good on the candidates finding work I guess!

Do you actually take the time to reject people after initial interviews? Or do you wait for the candidate to reach back out to you? I’ve noticed a lot of agencies don’t seem to follow up

I got an offer at Meta as a 3-mo contingent CSM that pays 2x what I make now.

Two pros: 1) Making the jump from a non-tech agency role to FAANG can be tough, so this is a great oppo in that aspect.
2) I'm living in SF on a non-tech salary, so the pay increase would be incredible.

It’s possible I could move into a similar role @ Meta once this expires, but to be safe, I'd need to start the job hunt again asap.

Thoughts on the pivot & how valuable a short-stint at Meta is for future job hunt?

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level. Knowing that I can bring a lot of value to the company (read- I know my worth), I negotiated with the hiring manager to have a level/comp review 6 months after employment. If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...
