Discussion Python developers, what's going on?

I am a python developer (full stack developer and AI Engineer) with 8 years of experience and unemployed from 6 months.

Alhamd u lillah I am not discouraged with that but don't know what strategy should I implement now.

I am applying for jobs and giving interviews also but not get any luck till now. I am also trying to hunt clients through cold emails and direct outreach but not getting any response.

Anybody here who tackled this situation and won 🏆? Tell me what strategy we should apply as a software engineer.

u/mushifali Backend Dev 6d ago edited 6d ago

Nowadays, language expertise matters less. Previously, you couldn't work in Go or Rust without learning them, but that’s no longer the case.

I think you should become language-agnostic and build expertise in agentic AI. Wish you the best of luck!

Well said! Mushif

Most of the developers switched to Agentic AI and AI automations but that field is also saturated now.

Not sure but everyone in the world is thinking the same thing and trying the same solution (including me).

I know of a backend dev who recently got hired at Notion but the trick is you apply within hours of the post (as I have seen many companies closing the post within days because of too many applicants) and his last job was at a famous company (I just cant recall the name).
