My perception is that at least in Europe, mass layoffs have had almost no impact on the tech sector. I would say there is still a shortage of people for desired roles and therefore job offers and salaries are still high.
Not talking about FAANG positions (or salaries) of course, more run-of-the-mill roles that companies struggle to fulfill.
- sveme 3y agoI‘m currently on the market and the situation is definitely very different from the same time last year. Companies are hesitant/waiting to see where the economy is heading, a lot if startups ran out of money. It‘s not that easy anymore, at least in my bubble.
- Sugimot0 3y agoYeah last year my inbox was flooded with recruiters, but I had a rough round of technical interviews back to back and succumbed to imposter syndrome. I postponed interviewing to learn and prep and try to add more to my resume. Now a year later, I'm trying for a new job again and I hardly hear from recruiters, and I actually have to apply for jobs. It's a huge contrast from this time last year and it makes me regret waiting. Side Note: Having seen other coworkers move on and knowing what I know now, I've realized I was more than ready to get a new job a year ago, I just lacked the confidence to keep trying. Hopefully this serves to motivate others paralyzed by imposter syndrome.
