    I mean, just because they post an ad for a rocket surgeon doesn’t mean they find one. At least in the US, compsci professionals do not have any trouble finding work.

      I’ve been looking for 8 months… I’ve applied for over 100 positions and had one first round interview.

      There is definitely trouble in the CS job market right now. I spoke to a recruiter who had no new jobs on their desk in two months.

        In the rest of the world, even the West, the picture is more dire. Americans tend to avoid hiring non-Americans, and had early mover advantage on computers and the internet.
