is there any data about the overall job market on whether it's been good or bad? genuinely curious the most recent data point shows a rebound https://www.citadelsecurities.com/news-and-insights/2026-glo...
and fwiw i dont know any swes struggling to find work personally
swe is so broad and in bubbles its hard to get an objective analysis
Their graph shows a rebound to early-mid 2024 levels which is promising but still a relatively bad job market
Software development jobs are up 10%. Jobs in general are down 6%
