can’t even make it to a 3rd interview when more than qualified for the jobs now… 5 years ago i could apply to 5 jobs and have 3 offers in weeks, now i apply to 50 jobs and get 2 interviews, neither of which make it past the 2nd round because now they have 1000 people applying per job
About half the people working at the bottom level of my local library system (for less that $20/hr) have a Master’s, all have a Bachelor’s. It took someone I know 6 months to get through their hiring process to work part time…
I got laid off in march this year. sent out about 600 apps in a month to literally anything qualified for. i got 3 interviews, only for positions i was way overqualified for, and didnt make it through the first round for any of them. i lucked the fuck out with getting reassigned to a position in a diff department, otherwise I’d be living with my parent after losing my home.
There is no job market at the current moment; it simply does not exist.
