I took a break from work for family reasons for 2 years and started looking for jobs earlier this year (I have 10+ years of experience) and I had a really hard time finding a job. Attended a ton of interviews, 2 times companies started the offer process and pulled back in the middle and I had to ultimately reach out to connections from old jobs to get hired. In my experience, it has never been this hard to get a job.

That’s usually the best place to start.
I understand that now. Previously never really had much trouble getting hired so wasted a lot of time instead of reaching out to my network from the start.
