I recently submitted over 3,000 job applications in my search for a design role, and the results have been disheartening. I only received one part-time offer, which really highlights how tough the job market is for designers right now. To better understand this situation, I collected data from 156 fellow job seekers and discovered some alarming trends. To share this information and promote transparency in the job market, I created a website where anyone can access the data for free. I'm committed to helping others navigate these challenging times.
