Has anybody noticed a sudden upsurge in the number of jobs available in the last week or so? I don't know whether to attribute it to the fall of Kabul (and the possibly false belief that the war is over), the improvement in the stock market, the phrases of the moon or pure coincidence, but, in the last week, I've had four employers contact me about possible work. This may not sound like much, but it's a rate about eight times greater than what I've learned to expect in the last few months.

Three of these possible jobs include marcom work, by the way - specifically, marcom done from a solid understanding of the technology being advertised.

Is anyone else seeing similar changes? I know people are still being laid off, but maybe some hiring has started, too.

"But here's the latest phrase you hear as you walk down the street,
Oh, you can't be up-to-date if you don't call out when you meet,
'Are you working?' 'No, are you?'"
-British Music Hall Song, 1922
