November of 2022 is when the Facebook and Amazon had their big layoffs, and Google, Microsoft, and Salesforce etc. followed in the two months after.

I haven't had a recruiter contact me on Linkedin for over a year, in 2022 and before I was being contacted by recruiters on Linkedin all the time.

Companies have different modes - mass layoffs, small layoffs, no hires, only hiring replacements, a few new slots open, many slots open. In early-mid 2022 we were in the last category and it's moved to one of the other modes for most companies, except for LLM hires.

There are different sources of information, I found this helpful ( https://interviewing.io/blog/when-is-hiring-coming-back-pred... ) from a company with some insights into tech hiring.

I have gotten requests on LinkedIn, but they're all automated about how awesome my experience is and how this job would match.

My profile is marked as remote only. The offers are all on-site.

So I have my doubts that it is a match.
