Can I hear from people who thought they’d never get a new job in this climate but eventually did? This market feels incredibly rough and I’ve honestly never had issues getting jobs before, certainly not for this long.
Would really appreciate hearing some hopeful stories from people who eventually broke through.

It’s brutal! However just last week my niece and I started new jobs. She’d been unemployed for over a year and I’d been hanging on for a new role before leaving my previous employer of 15 years. In the end the role I got was via indeed- two clicks to upload cv, zoom interview a week later, job offer the same week.
