I’ve been steadily applying for jobs for months. I’ve went on multiple interviews with different companies and Ive gotten rejected. In each interview, never received any negative feedback and I can tell the interviewers liked me and the answers I gave . I’ve also received automatic rejection without any interviews. I’ve only applied to job that I know my experience lines up with. However, I’m not getting any bites or offers.

Is it something I’m doing or is the market really just that bad?

Market sucks!! Vote Republican!

Job market really is that bad. Same story I hear everywhere.

The market is pretty bad, what's happening isn't unique to your own situation. Everyone seems to say that companies are interviewing people but just aren't hiring. Which seems to make no sense, yet it's happening. It's like hiring managers are waiting for some signal to put things into motion.

Went through multi-day loop for L5 SA and felt confident in my interactions. Presentation went well with no lack of answers for follow up questions. Just found out 6 days later I will not be receiving an offer, and it is policy to not provide feedback of gaps or reasons behind no offer. Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?
