It can also really vary a lot based on job type. Software development is a pretty small niche in terms of total US jobs, doesn't mean that a lot of devs are currently looking. Most of the jobs I've been applying to have hundreds of applicants. It's been rough to say the least. Since January, I've had a couple times where I'm in the final few and an offer at a startup that didn't get the funding they needed. I'm getting relatively anxious and far more open to most things at this point. A 1/3 pay cut is rough, but I need a job.
