Yeah I’m a CS dropout and worked for startups for 10 years and now nobody is biting. Starting to think I need a career change because I can’t see things improving any time soon now that AI is out of the bag.

Yeah, all the tech jobs dried up where I’m at. If one pops up it is a help desk position.
When I applied to one those help desk position the hr person asked me why are you applying to a job underneath you?
I have 10 years working as a Software Engineer that did mostly ETL tasks

i would just exclude that experience from my resume for these types of jobs, or reduce it.
