Generally I agree that it is harder to find a job in 2024, even with lots of experience. However, I consistently hear of companies allocating budget to recruite junior CSM and train them upon hiring.
I really hope that there are at least some companies that hire this way. Unfortunately when I was in the job market even with at least 3+ years of CSM experience and also 3+ years of sales experience I found it very difficult to even get an interview as a lot of CSM roles I kept applying for wanted more than that. I would think that having sales and CSM experience would make me an attractive candidate but I think so many companies are looking for unicorn candidates these days.

That is not the reality in today''s market or in the U.S. job market.
Agree in the current market this is not the reality. Even with extensive experience from project/account management you struggle getting into CS
