I mean, there seem to be jobs, I applied for everything, literally at this point, and haven’t even gotten a single call in 4 months now Contacts are king, if you don’t know someone working for a company currently hiring, good luck actually finding the job post which would hire one of the applicants rather than a contact of someone working there. I got laid off early this year, after half a year of applying. Got two interviews through network. But they looked for a different skillset (one of them also turned out to just be building their catalogue of potential future employees) and none from regular applications. The few job posts that seemed genuine, all went something like. Sorry we didn’t bring you to an interview, we had 150 applicants and four people had everything we asked for in the job posting. Which was fairly few job postings that actually responded like that, but I assume they’re the only ones not filled internally. I’ve kind of wanted to go into education for the past three years, but I had some pretty unique perks that made me very comfortable. So this summer I did the easy thing of starting a bachelor rather than continually throw myself against a wall
