A "few" years ago (back in the last economic crisis) I was job hunting. Interviewed with a ton of people, and almost no one would get back to you. A few did, but most just ghosted me. I just found myself back in the job hunt, but this time almost everyone sent me a response. It sucks getting a "no" but I'd rather get a "you are the worst programmer in the world, go jump on a lake" than get boring at all. I did one interview, had to give a presentation, out a lot of time into it. Never to hear from them again. But the point is, it was definitely better this time around (well better in the housing sense)
