    I feel you on the LinkedIn job postings where you see hundreds of applicants within a couple hours. I seriously doubt 90% are even qualified, just apply and clog up HR. I'm 50 now and somehow still working, but sometimes envy older coworkers who had an extra 10 years of non-globalization in tech...

    Very relatable and true about 5% interview call rates and picky companies, and thinking am I lacking some skills even after 14years of tech exp and done everything from full stack to devops to team management, even taking some tough certs to highlight CV. Exactly what I'm thinking through about those 100+ applications in 1 hour of posting and or 10 applications in 5mins of posting. After 350+ applications and less than 10 intvs calls for me its like 2%, btw I'm an expat in Singapore and the job market is same pretty bad here But keep it up and best of luck, I'm just enjoying my re-learning for certs haha

    Think of something that when you had your job you used to think " That job (fill in the blank, maybe not in tech ) looks like it would be really fun. Think of another city or state where you may like to live. Take your California unemployment (higher than most states) and consider a different location. That's what I did when I got laid off. It worked out great. Look at it this way. It's an opportunity. You are free now to live anywhere you want. If it's California, great. If not, there are 50 other states. Some very nice ones. Even outside of the country.

    Sorry you are going through this. I work in tech as well and everyday I wonder if I'll be losing my job through no fault of my own. First layoff was on my 40th birthday. No doubt it sucks. You have to look at work as if you are a free agent. There is zero sense of security or loyalty anymore. Hang in there! You'll find something and don't let the situation F with your confidence.

    I'm not going to lie I was in tech until i quit on my 42nd birthday. I had worked with hundreds of people around the world and honestly of the ones I kept up with none of them had much success. A lot of them got extremely out of shape, many sick, and some passed away. I did know one guy who had a very smart son who got hired by Microsoft as a program manager. He got paid an enormous salary and even had a few patents but this kid was SUPER SHARP. Anyway he came back home to visit his dad, paid his dad's house off and then told me he didn't like his career and was going to retire by age 35. I told him that's exactly the time to get out. Thank god for the movie Office Space it literally saved my life.

    Being laid off is a huge awakening for me. Never have loyalty. If your company ever starts laying off people (and you were spared this time), immediately start looking for a new job. Stop spending and save. Savings will be the difference between you having to take a poorly paid job just to get by, and being able to lounge around waiting for the right opportunity (or enjoy a hobby in the mean time). Stop wasting time. In this age where everyone seems to have less friends so are going out less and such, it's probably best to start a side hustle or just do an extra part time job to either save for a house or just build up savings to prevent anxiety if you ever get laid off. This isn't for everyone, but it's definitely something to think about if you feel like you're wasting time.

    I'd say not to be as discouraged when seeing how many people have applied for a position. With the amount of copy-paste, low-effort applications that get made against a job ad, your chances might be better than you think. As long as you apply for relevant roles and tailor your application to the role, you should have a better chance than most.

    Tiffany, take heart. You'll eventually land on your feet. You might want to take a look at another field or career, just thinking out loud. I have seen the tech world change last 30 years and its ups and downs. The tech world right now is at an inflection point, especially with the injection of AI into the mix. I don't know the direction it is going to take, with the world economics on the knife edge next 3 years to sort itself out. A career longevity in a tech career is a suspect right now, at least in my gut feeling. You can slug out in tech next few years to see if it works out for you and to your liking. If not, grad school or vocational school can be a good way to switch careers while you are young and motivated.

    “Its kind of like the employers market right now”…Newsflash its ALWAYS has been the employers market when has the ball ever been in the employees hands. Forgive me NOT sure if you do not like a career quit and find a new career opportunity. There’s the freedom aspect “Its kind of like the employees market” but when you’re burned…you’re burned 😂and being canned after 3-years stings bad relative to 3-months. Being let go cold turkey either way is painful. At this point screw these corporations; Gen-Z mentality.
