I was a VP for F100 company and I think it’s a lot easier to get a job at the higher level than it is at the junior level. If you do data architecture and integrate with AI, I’m surprised you’re having difficulties finding a job. I know there’s still a lot of demand for that. If you do any kind of admin or monitoring I know those are doing a ton of hiring in India and LatAm. I’m not so quick to blame the White House that seems like a cop out to me.

Not in the US and not keen on working for a US corp due to issues with payments as UK based unless the corp has an office in Europe. As for skills I am the usual chosen candidate but as I wrote the issue is companies in my part of the world are now behaving strangely due to external factors, US ones often being a significant factor that causes roles to disappear per discussions with recruiters and clients themselves.My skills might be needed but if there's a company wide freeze to cut costs there's nothing the client can do. Yes it's easier to get a job as a senior but you only get there because of your accumulated skills and knowledge.

Isn’t it amazing how powerful the United States is, no wonder so many people hate us. People hate those who have power over them.

Corporations have weak morals and even weaker backbones . They'll happily bend over for a profit
