Never. Start starting your own business.
I really hope that it gets better soon. I have been trying to find a new role for the past eight months because the company I am at is VERY toxic. It doesn't seem to be getting any better, though. I think layoffs are going to continue as a result of AI.
I think it's perseverance. I've applied to over 200 job postings and only had a handful of call backs. Anything that looks like what you're looking for, you should apply. I've spoken to recruiters and they've told me that companies are having a hard time parsing through resumes because it's so easy to click a button to apply. You can't count on applying to ten positions and getting a call back anymore.
Additional note, larger companies typically hire much slower too - usually a 6 week or more timeline. I've taken the extra effort to also find who a recruiter is for the companies and send a note. Not foolproof but it's something extra.
