Pretty dismal.

Fortunately, a friend of mine needed dev help with his growth stage company so I've been keeping the lights on contracting and sort of price gouging my hourly rate.

That said, I've really been hoping to land another proper full-time gig. On that front, things are not looking good. I had about a year under my belt as a newly transitioned (4YOE SWE 1YOE TPM) TPM so I'm sort of double fucked. Tech companies don't want to hire flip flopping devs and product people with less than a year of experience are basically un hire-able.

It's been four months, but at least I have some income to show for it. Had maybe three interviews, two recruiters reach out in this entire time. Probably around 100 applications.
