Welcome to The Hiring Market Now
This one is for the arguments happening everywhere else: whether AI has eaten junior roles, whether half the postings are real, whether anyone reads a resume before a machine does. Bring numbers if you have them and say where they came from.
Anecdotes are welcome too. One person's six-month search is not a market trend, but forty of them in the same thread usually mean something.
