2+ YOE as DevOps, looking for Software Dev and DevOps-y roles since, say, February.
Not really looking, per se, but was listening and responding to head hunters and treating it as a learning experience and maybe some leverage to get a pay bump - I’m classed as a junior but run rings around the mid-career and seniors we’ve hired recently, who all make more than me.
Anyway, I had a ton of interviews (probably 15 or so), several next rounds (maybe 5?), but no actual offers and nothing that would make me move through about May, and then….everything just went radio silent.
I almost posted this week to ask if I was doing something wrong or the market was that hard right now.
