I disagree. From what I see the job market is still very strong. Vacancies, imho, have more to do with everybody working from home. Anecdotal, but I have a friend who is 69 years old who quit his job abruptly b/c he didn't really like his new boss. Told the headhunting agency that he wanted a job where he can work 100% at home. Within a week he was offered a high paying job where he has to come in to the NY office once per quarter. My daughter just found a new job with a large international 'spirits' company pretty quickly at what I consider to by very strong salary for her experience. And she has to come in 3 days per week. My brother-in law is an attorney with the Attorney Generals office for the State of New York. He only goes in like once or maybe twice per week (he does have to go to some trials obviously). My daughter's good friend, who is an epidemiologist, she goes into the office at most once per week. That's at a private company, before that she worked for the City of New York Dept of Health, and even there she only had to go in twice per week. And really, on and on....

Things can change quickly in the job market, but up till right now, I think its a pretty hot market.
