Poorly thus far. I’ve got stats from when I applied for jobs two years ago and it’s a very different picture. Previously: 19 applications and 4 solid offers.

Same number of applications this year. I’ve been ghosted, told my skills and experience don’t match salary expectations or level of seniority, and at times not made it past the initial application due to some short tenures on my CV.

I haven’t used any one specific strategy. I’ve been networking, reworking my CV to better present my experience, and building a small personal website to talk about some projects.

It’s a more competitive market for sure.
