Ironically I've heard Gordon Ramsey is actually a pretty swell guy despite the impression some of his shows give. You can see it when he's trying to genuinely empathize with the people on kitchen nightmares and actually help them,

Anecdotally I just got a new job and a massive raise from my last position but my friends who are new grads or have less experience/weird educational backgrounds are still struggling to land roles. Definitely a much better market than
