For software engineering 2001 especially post 9/11 was brutal. Much more so than 2008 unless you worked for a financial company.
2008/2009 was lean times but good people were able to find work. After the dotcom bust however, things were so bad I had a friend who is a very good developer who spent a couple of years gluing shoes for a living. In Canada.
