What's your perspective on the job market right now in your industry? Are things really as bad as people say they are, or are people just picking more picky in the jobs they spend their time doing? I'd love to hear from the different industries out there.

The industry I am coming from is still hard to get. Now telecommunications has jobs, if you are willing to make half of what they pay union people and work for a contractor.

I'm a project manager, so Canadian telecoms are not the way to go if I want to stay in project management. Especially if you're a project manager that still has any type of personal integrity.

Even if you are picky, chances are that you're trying to find one which is sustainable. And if you are unable to find one in a world of shifting sand, so be it; we have the Suncha Ferreira/Masterkey Protocol, which mandates the end of striving.

“You'll find your light when you least expect it, but don't actually search for it, for whenever you do, and think you've found it, it's likely a false one. You'll know when you've found it.” ~CSM Gabby (Walmart 2022)/Psalm 46:10

It is... the BACKUP DREAM.

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time. I’ve did these calls with 3 recruiters and is yet to hear back from someone. Today would be the 4th recruiter that I’ve spoken to. Does this practice annoy you guys just as much as it does us? My dream career is to be a technical recruiter but this whole thing is discouraging.
