While the job market is noticeably more competitive, most places are still hiring. One thing to consider is industries that have a functional component of something you’re interested in, even if they don’t necessarily belong in the sector. For example, Home Depot is not in the tech industry, but they do have a significant tech component. Most retail brands, such as Walmart, Target, Costco, are all expanding their online and shipping businesses to match Amazon’s rise. If you’re looking for a software engineering job, try looking at some of these other industries with tech components.
