Unexpected job losses, rise in unemployment rate fan US labor market doubts | Reuters https://share.google/jqt02tB7TliS5fs87

Do reports like this make you feel better (it's not just me) or worse (I thought we were recovering.) They make me feel a little better, knowing I'm not alone.

It's definitely bittersweet. There's part of me that feels like thank God I'm not just a loser who can't find a job, the issue is bigger than just my own situation. But at the same time, does that really help? Because I still need a job, lol.

Exactly! I feel the same way.

I was hoping to find a better job this year, and the job market has seemed totally stuck. So the numbers just confirm what I already believed, which I guess was kind of reassuring. I mean, it meant it wasn't just me. It still makes me worried, it feels like this is going to be a very difficult year, especially with things seeming to get more chaotic every time I turn on the news.

It does feel pretty chaotic right now. We've been through this before though. Doesn't help in the short term but I do believe things will get better.

I found a company I was really excited about working at. I applied for the job and went through 5 rounds of interviews. At the end they said I was OVER qualified and they want me for a different position higher up in the company. I was super excited they then had me go through 5 more rounds, 3/5 people were the same. The interviews mostly went "didn't you get the job, I highly recommend you? I'll just put you down as a 10". After those were done they told me I was UNDER qualified. Can't win!
