It hits home for me but I'm probably the minority. I have a senior title but I'm a PeopleSoft developer which is kind of becoming an obsolete niche. I don't really have the skill set to interview for other senior software development positions.
- JustSomeNobody 8y agoApply anyway, if you want to. Sure, you may get more rejections that way, but is that bad, other than being a little embarrassing? Also, assuming you're current job is fine, now is the time to actually be looking for the next thing when there's no pressure. You can bomb interviews and there's no financial stake in it for you. I would make a list of places I think make interesting products and give it shot. You may find that one place that says, "I like this person, and I think they're smart. I'll give them a shot.'
