This is a light time for hiring, as you state: lots of people are on vacation.
While people do look for specific buzzwords, the better ones realize that you can teach anybody a framework and it's among the less-important aspects of the hiring process. I see a pretty even mix of Angular vs. React jobs these days. I have neither on my resume (but have been doing React for some time now) and get more requests for Angular than React--but that might also be because it's harder to find Angular devs.
I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Having worked 11 years in IT in the Fortune 100 Corporate World and then giving a startup a go, I find myself a little like a fish out of water back trying to get this many years being on the other side of interviewing.
I wasn't referring to my startup failure, I was referring to not having interviewed or having done a resume for over 12 years. :D I'll get it done I have confidence in my ability to figure things out.
