I am still finding in my inbox lots of job proposals almost daily. But I don't live in US.
We don't know yet if are living a crisis or a recession. Until many people lose their jobs, sales of goods and services take a big hit and real estate colapses hard, we don't experience a crisis.
But even if that is true, if we are experiencing the start of a crisis, I guess hiring for SWE roles will might slow a bit, but that won't make finding a job very hard.
Startups, unicorns and multibillion companies which had inflated stock prices might be more prudent now when hiring.
But apart for that there is a huge number of companies with an even greater need for SWE.
If you think a crisis might come, just ask yourself what industries/corners will be affected. What will people do in a crisis? Would they watch as much Netflix? Probably no, since they have to pay money. Will they still buy food, search google, use facebook and twitter, need insurance and banking? Probably yes.
Will old, "boring" industries, which are not hi tech, but are now on the rise such as oil and financial services need to hire SWEs? I am sure they will need.
IT is much more than startups, unicorns and FAANGS. These are just a drop in the ocean.
And if you want a great job security, you might find out that your national and local governments and state owned institutions are hiring SWE roles, too.
