Job Market Update
I was recently laid off and, despite sending out multiple applications, I haven’t received any callbacks or interview invites. With 20 years of experience in the industry, this is a first for me. I know the IT sector is facing some challenges, but is anyone else experiencing similar difficulties?

I’m really sorry to hear about your situation. The job market can be incredibly challenging, especially right now with so many changes happening across various industries. It’s not uncommon for experienced professionals like yourself to face unexpected hurdles, even after years of success.
You’re definitely not alone; many people are experiencing similar struggles, regardless of their field. It might help to review your resume and cover letter, ensuring they highlight your skills and achievements in a way that’s appealing to potential employers. Networking can also be invaluable—consider reaching out to former colleagues or industry contacts who might have leads or advice.
Stay hopeful and persistent; sometimes the right opportunity comes when you least expect it. Keep applying and don’t hesitate to seek feedback from peers or mentors. Best of luck!
