We are going into a recession but airlines are struggling with surging travel demand. Also have lots of friends interviewing and getting offers right now. Am I missing something?

Recession doesn’t have to correlate to unemployment

More like it’s not actually a recession until there’s unemployment (cf. the Fed using the Sahm rule)

IF we’re going into a recession (as some people are calling for despite what the economy is actually telling us) then it’s only by definition. Unemployment is at record lows, consumer spending is up, corporate profits up.

Precisely. Look at car repos… ppl can’t pay their car loans and are selling them back

A minor recession (if any) that has been overhyped by the media where demand is still outpacing supply of labor.

Same.

The 2y/10y inversion has preceded all recessions before , exactly when that happens is anyone's guess.

Lady hooray?

The reason for this potential recession is high inflation. Due to high inflation, Central banks are tightening money supply. That will make ppl spend less on Goods and as a result there may be a slow down. This recession is induced because post pandemic surge in activity, coupled with supply chain delays and high amount cash in economy due to stimulus programs would have led to hyperinflation. So central banks are trying to put brakes on consumption. The hopes are that this is going to be temporary and economy will bounce back in a few quarters with lower inflation.

Soft landing? But my portfolio….

Made it to Amazon last round, and rejected. All I got was an email from the recruiter saying they didn't move forward. The team seemed great, and the turnover didn't seem terrible as everyone I interviewed with was there for 3 years or longer. It seemed like a great group doing good work. I'm crushed.

I just had an interview for a pretty big tech company, and it was the final step for an offer (just a one on one with the hiring manager, skipped the panel portion). During the interview, I didn’t get to speak at all! The hiring manager spoke the entire time and didn’t ask me any questions, I had to practically chime in to tell her about myself. The only thing she asked was if I had any questions about the role (which I did ask). Thoughts about this? Not sure what to think or how it turned out.

I have received positive feedback on my interview but the job says "Must be legally authorized to work in the United States without the need for employer sponsorship, now or at any time in the future".
