Commercial airliners are plenty fast. Flying is a nightmare due to everything that is _not_ sitting on a plane. Booking, checking-in, dealing with labyrinth airport layouts, needing to walk literally miles to your gate in some instances, yo

Terrible. Seller's market now. >100 apps, 2 HR screenings, 1 interview, 1 rejection. I'm 7+ YoE senior engineer working in the embedded space. I even have generic third party recruiters ghosting me these days, _after_ having me

Anecdote: I'm at a 0% hit rate over ~60 applications the last month. I'm not really actively looking so I'm not hand-tailoring each app, just moreso looking to interview to keep those skills sharp. This is down from a ~75% hi
