I've seen the opposite -- more senior hiring because seniors can now outsource a portion of rote work to the LLM -- everything from trivial utilities to docs to testing. Also, I get dozens of calls/emails a month from my undergrad/grad alma matter. The bottom seems to have fallen out of the labor force when even ivy leave and top-5 cs/tech schools have students desperately seeking entry level jobs. To be fair, as I mentioned on another comment, there are other factors: 1. Record numbers of CS undergrads (more supply) 2. More remote-CS/tech grad programs (yet more supply, many overseas) 3. Bursting of the tech-vc bubble (less demand)
