Wow, I’m so sorry for what you’re going through, yeah we’re pretty similar, when the industry was doing ok I’d be drowning in interviews, now it feels like I’m not even being seen. It is rather weird. I’m hoping for the best for you and your family!

Oddly enough I had more recruiters talk to me about Kotlin recently than Java, are there any certs you would recommend, if they even exist?

I’ll definitely keep this in my back pocket, I live in a hot area so I’m sure I could find an HVAC job, thanks for the input

Thank you for taking the time to write all of this, I definitely needed such a perspective.

Thank you for the insight!

No I don’t want to be in management. I just enjoy talking to people and making genuine connections instead lip service fueled networking. This isn’t a self assessment either, its something I’ve been told enough to believe it.

Interesting, I’ll definitely keep this in mind thank you!
