    The only sector thats hiring and growing is data science/data engineering. Its the grift i hopped on after my last company axed like 90% of the staff and so far its showing no signs of slowing down.

    If you can do sql and python its definitely something to look at since the field is occupied entirely by head in the clouds nincompoops who shouldn't be allowed near a computer so looking better than the competition should be easier.

    I can't really say anything for anywhere outside the UK though I'm only familiar with the job market here but machine learning ai bollocks is global.

    Oh and make sure to lie, like lots of lies its what i do when applying for jobs. I've only ever been caught out once

      I know Python and SQL and I've worked for five years in ETL. Still can't get a callback. What's a good lie to tell? I'm not above it.

        I look at the job posting and read the tech requirements and tell them I know all of those and just add them to my CV. Went into java/php and python jobs saying i had 5 years experience when I had 0 minutes experience.

        I also grossly exaggerate my role in certain companies or sometimes just steal stuff that i never actually touched but know enough about i can say i lead.

        For example i wrote some bug fixes for a taxi booking system, this becomes I lead a taxi booking system build from the ground up solo and gathered the requirements from the customer.

        So far no ones caught me out cos i learn quickly enough and never ask questions just sit and observe until I'm confident enough. Did have one interview where it was a genuinely very clever person who knew i was bullshitting but most senior devs either don't seem to know or care.

        Try and lie about things you can explain within reason cos i tried telling people i know kafka and that didn't work out so well
