    My husband in tech related job has been out of work for almost a year. He applies to things daily and has an interview once every two weeks or so (not counting many follow up interviews). He’s a decent interviewer. The usual response is, we like you for this, we’ll keep you in mind in the future, we just had so many applicants and the other guy is a better fit (or, we suspect, will do this job for less money). My brother in tech has also been out of work for months. Maybe your area is doing well? Our area had massive tech layoffs and is now way over saturated, and one of the main employers of our state (a tech firm) has been on a hiring freeze for months and months. Believe the article.
