What are your thoughts on today's job market? Unemployment is low but it doesn't feel that way to me. Does it to you?

I've been unemployed for 6 months, & it's my 1st time being unemployed in my adult life, when it wasn't my choice. I've been diligent, but I see the same jobs I did months ago online, so are they really hiring? Recruiters have also been saying jobs are drying up, but that doesn't align with low unemployment.

Anyone else feel the same? I'm curious about your experience.

I just had two of the weirdest interview. I was interviewing for a payroll systems mgmt role and the first guy was a finance mgr and he didn't ask me anything. I basically interviewed him. The 2nd interviewer was the hr systems lead. She had read my resume and was super weirded out that my current role is the same as hers. I think she thought I was interviewing to replace her. She kept asking me what I would be doing. Like dude, do you not know why you are even interviewing me? Hard pass.
