It may be just my perception, but does it seem that the job market has become healthier and more robust? Even on this site it appears that a lot of people are looking and finding good jobs and are receiving offers or multiple offers quickly and aren't having to spend months looking or they are going from one job to their next without a gap at all.

I've been following this site and have noticed a shift from job searching strategies and career development focused questions to more of issues surrounding how to deal with toxic work places and long term abuse at work.

Why women love us:

Daily articles on career topics
Jobs at companies dedicated to hiring more women
Advice and support from an authentic community
Events that help you level up in your career

depends on what line of work you are in and where you live. I've seen many on here posting that they've been looking for months, sometimes even years(!!!)

Agree with the other anonymous commenter - I think it totally depends on the industry + level of experience a person has. Although I have seen a few people asking for advice on which offer to take which I didn't see as often a year ago, so that's a good sign!

In my experience, it's a job seeker's market right now! There's a lot more opportunities and those of us who are hiring are having trouble finding suitable candidates.
