There are still a "significant number" of I.T. tech job openings that finding a job should not be tough, but "getting" those job is another matter. Poor interviewing skills may make it more difficult to get jobs, but "try before you buy" is how I got my job over 10 years ago and now is being called "Job Auditions" by Ron Friedman, which is basically a contract with option to hire. I think it is a good additional approach for companies to get the best possible team and good for highly qualified candidates who are not so great at job in-person interviews.
To backup my "significant number" claim, here's a 3 months old info: "Bay Area unemployment rates fall to lowest in 15 years" http://www.mercurynews.com/2016/12/16/south-bay-jobs-surge-east-bay-slumps/ http://www.mercurynews.com/2016/12/16/south-bay-jobs-surge-e...
A more specific example: close to a thousand job openings at Apple Inc. with specific search as "software engineer" and location as "Santa Clara Valley" -> Showing 921-939 of 600+
