How bad is the job market right now!?!?

Hello I have been working as a developer for almost 3 years now. I have been pursuing design at side and want to transition to design as career (UX/product design roles). Need help on navigating roles and salaries from anyone who has transitioned/seen someone transition and has knowledge on this. 1. Apply for entry level roles or senior roles? 2. How to navigate salary discussions ( if recruiter says since this is your first design job we can only pay entry level salary X which is less than my current salary as a dev)?

Struggling to land interviews. I have been applying for months now. I feel it's very competitive and the bar is higher. Your thoughts? Suggestions to land a decent job in this market. Feeling frustrated and hopeless day by day. Role : Data Analytics & Engineer

8 interviews, 2 case studies and over 25 hours of time spent for one role....Finally rejected. Give me some hope folks

why is the job market so bad these days? Trying to switch since Feb. Is it across all domains? Recruiters are going cold after 2-3 rounds. What can be a plausible reason?

Hi Guys , I started my job search in June Not getting much calls In interview the people who are taking interviews are having whole different level of attitude. 0 offer letter till date . Feeling stuck and demotivated.

I have close to 2 years of work exp at a boutique investment bank, I'm trying to make a switch and till date I haven't gotten a single call back, it's been few weeks now, just wanted to understand if this is how the process is or there's something wrong with the market rn?

I am trying to switch since last 2 months using naukri, instahyre, linkedin and cutshort and have only gotten calls from WITCH companies and other small service companies. Is job market really that bad or do I lack the tech to get an interview at a decent product company? Does instahyre even work? Not a single call or view by recruiters I have almost 8 years exp and tech stack is java, rest API, kafka, weblogic etc.

Guys..how is the job market in India currently, I heard people are getting less call for interview now a days ..is it so ?

Me and my friends aren't even getting shortlisted for an interview.LinkedIn isn't working, direct referrals isn't working. After multiple rounds they just decide to go the other way. And this is happening with experienced talent. What the hell is happening!

Since the start of this month, I have been applying for different opportunities but haven't received a response from any of them. I am currently a backend developer with 3.5 years of experience at a Fortune 30 company and have been promoted for two consecutive years. I also don't want to use referrals right now because I'm completely unprepared. If you are in job hunt please share your experience.
