New Beginnings

In case you've been living under a rock, the job market for software engineers in 2025 has been pretty abysmal. It for this reason that I am proud to announce that I've landed a new role.
Not only is it a role, but judging from my first two weeks it's going to be an awesome role! It's a small, remote company which has been experiencing astronomical growth. My team is brand new, with high impact and visibility. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity be the team's scrum master while also getting paid to learn golang.
In light of this achievement, I wanted to share the struggle that got me here: 8 months of unemployment and 380 job applications submitted.
