Was only unemployed for a week, and now im a software engineer making BANK. The tech job market isn't cooked, its just oversaturated with unpassionate, JS bootcamp people screaming because they cant get a $200,000 job after watching a few react and tailwind tutorials. Hang in there bros.

I had a similar experience 3 years ago, except I had a 2 year gap after graduating. Got the first SWE job I applied to, at biking distance from my home. Though I'm not making bank so it's probably time for me to move on.
