Idk, lots of folks have been talking about “downturns” but I’ve been in the industry for 8 years now and I’ve never had to look for more than 2-3 weeks to get a job—and that’s while I was already working so I’d imagine I could find one even faster if I dedicated all my time to it.

I’m not trying to be contrarian or suggest that other folks don’t struggle finding a job. I’m just offering an alternate viewpoint. Maybe it’s my skill set that’s in-demand? (Full-stack JavaScript; React, Node, plus a ton of other stuff like Elasticsearch, DevOps-ish skills)

I’ve got a semi-decent resume and my managers typically give me feedback that I’m quite charismatic and easy to work with. Perhaps that comes across in interviews as well?
