Fairly tough.
I got laid off 2.5 months ago. Decided to take a 2 months to center myself. Ive dropped about 12 applications now, had 1 interview at second round. Another contact me, then ghost me, and 2 "sorry you arent a fit", the rest have been silence.
Im a Senior devops/automation engineer, 20 year career in some IT field.
- WinLychee 3y agoYou'll need to send much more than 12, try 2-3 a day for a month. Of those, maybe 5% will reply, but it's not bad that bad once you get into the swing of it.
- CableNinja 3y agoYeah if only there were actually openings, thats the problem. The market is crap atm. Its not like ive not applied to a job before, or dont have experience.
- viking123 3y ago12 applications feels quite low in the current market
- CableNinja 3y agoNot many openings at the moment. Those 12 are ones ive swooped on as theyre posted. Even going back 30 days hasnt yielded many, maybe 2-3. Been checking boards 2-3 times a day 6 days a week since beginning of august
