68. The New Rules of CS Job Hunting: Why Your Experience Isn't Getting You Hired

Episode notes

Are you feeling stuck or frustrated with your job search? You’re not alone, and it’s not your fault. If your CS job hunting experience feels like you're tossing applications into a black hole, this episode is your wake-up call. The truth is, it’s not your lack of experience, a career gap, or missing KPIs that’s keeping you stuck. The job market has done a complete 180 since pre-2020, and the old playbook is officially dead. In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly how and why the market shifted, why you might be questioning every career decision you’ve ever made, and what’s really holding most people back from landing interviews (no, it’s not your resume). I’m also sharing real talk about why so much advice out there is garbage, and what actually works based on data, not trends. Ready to finally break that cycle of job search frustration? Hit play and let’s fix your strategy.
