The Truth About the Software Engineering Job Market in 2025
Landing a software engineering gig is tougher than ever—tons of applicants, ever-shifting tech stacks and the rise of AI have companies drowning in resumes. Generic portfolios and “one-size-fits-all” cover letters won’t cut it; you need to stand out by focusing on a specific niche and showcasing real-world projects.
To actually get hired, learn to tailor your applications, nail interview fundamentals (data structures, system design, soft skills) and embrace AI as a tool, not a threat. Think of AI as your coding sidekick: use it to speed up problem-solving and automate basics, but don’t let it replace your unique problem-solving flair. Keep iterating, stay accountable and you’ll crack the code to landing that dream role.
