I know people are panicking right about now, but I've been preparing for this for a few months and submitting applications. I got 3-4 interviews per month and I got two offers in that time. Granted, the pay wasn't high enough to get me to say yes, but if I was jobless at the time, it would have been an easy yes. So there are jobs out there, just be persistent.

@OP what were the roles youve been looking at
Key note- you were still employed at the time. The job market outlook will look very different for you now. It is that bad.

So the market su-ks, got it
In many areas of business the market is absolutely terrible and as op mentioned the salary offers for roles are low and in this economy I don’t know anyone who can take much of an income reduction. I have peers from previous roles that were laid off 6/7 months ago with no luck yet. This is going to be a very difficult hurdle for a lot of people
Depends on your area. In tech, the market is terrible.
