Ask HN: Is the market bad, or am I having the worst luck job hunting?

I got laid off at the start of the year, and ever since then, I've been applying constantly but have only gotten one interview. Before being laid off, I held a job as a front-end dev for the previous 5 and a half years.

Despite all these efforts, I keep receiving rejection emails. So, I just wanted to reach out and see if anyone else has had any similar experiences with applying for jobs.
