I've been in the same boat as you describe for 3 yrs., incl. continuing education (with an honorary degree already) and a professionally revised resume. Doesn't matter. On other platforms there has been discussion that this broken job market is actually a "white collar recession" affecting all types of industries...where companies are posting jobs to collect resumes for when they will be hiring. I actually saw a posting that stated something similar, "While we may not be hiring right now, please submit your resume so we can reach out at a later date." While I appreciate the company's honesty, I'm in need of a job now - where I'll put my effort...not later - if they chose to contact at all. AI is playing a part in what resumes are passed along, sure. But more and more seems like very few companies are actually hiring and, instead, may be posting jobs in an effort to show co. 'growth' to investors co.
White collar recession hits the nail on the head from SQA 1 there. Agree that between AI and smaller budgets, there just aren’t as many jobs available. Then the open jobs have tons of applicants for them. Big waiting game right now.
Ive applied to over 600 jobs and gotten notice or interviews on about 2% in the last 2 months . Its just the norm
Reading these posts can sometimes make situations worse and make you not believe in yourself. If I had kept reading this and believing it, then I’d be stuck in my dead end position thinking all was broken. I was tired in my job and applied to two jobs and got approached by a recruiter for the third when I showed as being available on linked in. I was called back and interviewed for all three. And got offers on two of the three. So companies are STILL hiring. You have to just believe in yourself and do your best. And it will happen when it’s supposed to. Offering hope!! All this happened for me within 1 month of looking!
