I would have thought it was safe to assume just about everyone has a hiring freeze right now?

- formercoder 7y agoNope. I’ve been getting the normal FAANG recruiter inbounds, and my fiancé just accepted a role at a venture backed startup after receiving two offers.
- nostrademons 7y agoIt's not, really. I'm in the interview process with about half a dozen companies right now. Coronavirus has hit companies very unevenly: some have lost 80% of their business, but some have seen their userbase grow by 50% just in the last month.
- DavidChouinard 7y agoNot at all. Effects vary wildly across industries and even within that, companies are affected in very different ways. Many companies are redoubling their hiring efforts — lots of new talent suddenly available is big opportunity.
- james-skemp 7y agoWe're also wrapping up interviews for three positions. University/education. We'll be running into a hiring freeze very shortly, but I assume other organizations that are essential and have positions key to providing service will continue to be filled.
- astura 7y agoNot at all, my company is hiring, we have TONS of work to do!
