I suspect this job market will be remembered years from now for how awful it is. This summer things have just stopped, according to news reports. Businesses can't project their costs going forward with the tariffs going into effect. And they don't want to add to the payrolls in that climate. It seems like companies are posting jobs but not following through on hiring for them.

Judging from the job reports that came out recently, it’s especially bad for black women right now.

Everyone is clutching their pearls (and their purse strings) right now, with tariffs and the budget not getting passed through the House yet, no one knows how things are going to play out. I'm applying like mad but haven't heard a peep. I know of some managers that are simply using openings as a future pool of candidates to choose from which is the case for a lot of the openings we see right now imho.
