at least some is pure 2020. we want to hire, we can’t right now.

  Why not? I would have thought it was a buyer’s market now with all the layoffs.

    If it weren't urgent (i.e., lost a job) I'd be a little reluctant to join a company/team that I'd never met in person. I can imagine that others would be equally reluctant to hire someone they've only seen through Zoom.

      Also if you didn't lose a job, you might not want to change right now if you're in a stable position, even if it's not your dream job.

    There's tons of layoffs because businesses are doing really badly. Current cashflow may not support another developer. Future cashflow doesn't look that great in any B2C market, either, and the B2B markets will start to look slim pickings not too far after that.

      I’m not sure I follow. My question was directed toward OP, whose company is hiring, which presumably means they are doing well. Can you please clarify?
