Ask HN: Has the market for software engineers diminished at all?

There was a big rush of layoffs a few months ago, but has that significantly impacted the industry? Was there enough demand for experienced engineers that those who were laid off were able to quickly find a place?

I’m still getting contacted by recruiters, and yesterday’s “Who is hiring” had plenty of postings.

What’s the experience like been for people who are trying to find a job? Do offers seem lower?

What about from those who are still trying to hire? Do candidates seem to be of higher quality?
