The past year or so has probably been the worst market for developers since 2008. It's been picking up again, or at least it was for a bit.

If you haven't yet, one thing that would be worth doing is working with a recruiter. There's plenty of bad ones out there, of course, but a good one will have direct access to the people hiring. If you're willing to work on-site, even better, as that will significantly reduce the number of people you're competing against for attention.

I hope you find some of this useful, and either way, I wish you luck!
