It’s been six months of job hunting with zero luck so far. I’m submitting applications every day and updating my resume all the time, but the market feels impossible. I’m worried that the longer I’m out of a job, the harder it’s going to be to get one. Do y'all think this widening gap is what’s holding me back, or are things just slow everywhere?

AI is looking over resumes now. You need to personalize your resume to each job to get through with Buzzwords.

May I suggest feeding your resume into AI, then feeding the job description into AI and letting it tailor your resume to fit.

That's sound advice but isn't that just AI rewriting your CV and if everyone is doing that then all CVs sounds the same

I do not think the gap alone is the problem. I am seeing long searches everywhere, even for strong candidates. Six months feels brutal emotionally, but it is increasingly common. The market is slow, inconsistent, and full of false starts right now.
