(Aus) Going poorly for me. Started my current job a year or so ago, been looking to leave since. Probably into the 100s of applications in the last 12 months now; I will apply for most anything with a tech fit even if (for e.g.) a role requires on-site that I'm not interested in, just to try and get a feel for the market by whether or not I get at least a screening call. I've had 2 final stage interviews: knocked back in one and dropped out of the other (red flags). Have also had 2-3 applications get a "this role now on hold, soz" response. So I'm getting just enough interest to keep hope alive. Even the steady stream of LinkedIn PMs for vaguely-related jobs has dried up.
I touched up the resume a little bit but otherwise I'm not doing anything a whole lot differently. I was almost allowing myself to quit this ass job if I instead got some vendor certs, but I'm increasingly concerned that a decent job market might years away, not months, so the suffering continues. :)
Same location, similar situation. I thought it was just me. At least twenty recruiters on my LinkedIn list, and not a peep since I toggled my 'Open to work' status weeks ago. Used to receive a fairly consistent stream of messages when I wasn't ready.
Applied for a few positions so far just to see whats up. Only one gave me a rejection. The rest ghosted. Moving state next year and need to find a new gig before then. Sounds like I'll need to start applying a lot more
