honestly if you’re desperate for a job i’d pitch yourself as both. look solo but you can also say you have current partner options if that sweetens the deal for recruiters/CDs
For the people who applied with partners - were you just cold emailing agencies? I find most agencies don't post any listings, and definitely not dual ones
Just had an interview where they wanted to hire me but the timing wasn’t quite right - then I mentioned I have a partner in mind who’s available and their ears really perked up. They’re meeting them this week
Having a partner that you’ve proven successful with will always help you get your foot in the door, especially if someone with some power can vouch for you. That’s how i got my job. That being said, pairs aren’t hired more frequently because more openings are usually for one position. So just apply solo for those, but even in those cases half the time i’ve been asked if i have a partner.
I’m in a similar boat and have been employed past few month after layoffs. Was getting interviews but hadn’t landed anything but recently started applying to roles with a partner and we’ve had success. I’d suggest solo/ as a team and whatever happens be happy you get something
