I had absolutely NO problem finding employment during that time period.
First jobs are usually the "first" to go FYI.
I'm a senior dev, and even back then I had a ton of experience.
I agree with OP. This is easily the biggest down cycle since the dot com bubble.
Just remember, things will recover. Eventually.
- danjac 3y agoSame here. However I do not believe things will recover, at least in a reasonable time frame for my own career. My thinking is now if this current job ends I need to think about exiting the industry and doing something else. Oh well, tech is a nice hobby at least.
- Paul-Craft 3y agoThat's all well and good, but "eventually" doesn't pay the bills right now.
- vertis 3y agoWhich is a lesson to not blow your money (I know this doesn't help those that are CURRENTLY in this situation). Tech people tend to think money grows on trees, they're paid far more than the median wage and that means they feel things like inflation and cost of living pressures less, but it does tend to result in an attitude that there will always be more money so why save.
