US East Coast === Also Dead. edit: I'm a frontend focused JS/TS dev with 5 years experience and I was laid off at the end of May and never before has my anxiety been this high about landing another SWE role. At this point I've been heavily considering some sort of "hold over job" just to keep the lights on and keep me from going crazy, but I'm hoping I don't have to go down that route.

I can second this. NYC has plenty of companies accepting applications, but an extremely small number of interviews actually happen, and an even smaller number of people are getting hired. It feels like there are 200-300 job seekers for every job posting that makes it onto a job board, with titles like "Senior Software Engineer."

Hey I run a little recruiting startup, and we have a few roles at fintech companies in NYC--wanna send me your LinkedIn + resume?

What industries/verticals are you looking in?

If I had my druthers on specific industries to focus on it would likely be in either finance or some sort of logistics field. My last role was an education CMS product and while that was fine it never felt like things would go anywhere I wanted to go. But, with the aforementioned "deadness" of things, I'm willing to take a role almost anywhere at any level just to stay writing software.
