I'm a fullstack web dev with 7 years of experience, and been casually searching for the past year or so, but most applications don't go anywhere, when I've had no problems with resumes in the past.

How have your experiences been, anyone having any better luck?

9 year full stack/mobile dev here. Got caugt up in the layoffs last year and it took nearly 10 months to find work thos past January. At one point, I went 6 months without even a response. It's anecdotal, but multiple recruiters have told me that companies are utilizing AI to auto-reject all but the unicorn resumes.
