Interestingly, two or three years ago I sent a few emails via Who is Hiring and I got probably 3/4 response rate, and an offer (which I refused in the end, staying in my current company). This year my current company is not in a good shape, and I sent perhaps 20 emails and got NOTHING nothing at all back.

My thinking is because this year I'm 40 years old and ATS software now marks me as a dinosaur.

I saw this just before you edited. Don't worry I won't reveal anything. But I wanted to say that - although I hope you're wrong about what you wrote - you might also be right, and if so it is awful. Some people cannot separate one thing from another.

Thank you. I just hope in the end it was not relevant and it was just me looking for something to blame.

The market is also far far worse right now than it was 3 years ago
