TL;DR: The software engineering job market in 2025 is more competitive than ever—there are tons of candidates, AI tools are changing the game, and generic resumes get buried. To stand out, you’ve got to pick a clear niche, build real-world projects (not just tutorials), and get laser-focused on the skills employers actually need.
When you apply, tailor each resume and cover letter to the role, network strategically, and practice interviews like crazy (coding challenges, system design, behavioral questions). Finally, embrace AI as both a learning tool and a way to automate routine tasks—just don’t let it replace your hands-on experience.
