What's Working for Job Searches in 2025

It used to be the case that, if you were unhappy in your job, friends would tell you, "maybe it's time to look for a new job." But these days, people will tell you "hang onto whatever you've got." Because a lot of people are getting burned in the current job market.  The job market in 2025 looks dramatically different from what it did 2 years (or even 12 months) ago. So, if you're feeling stuck in your job – or going through a layoff – it might feel like you should be grateful for any job you can get.  Even if you love your job, you might be anxious about looming layoffs, hiring freezes, or rumors of a punishing return-to-office mandate.
