Is the mood in this sub truly representative of the reality out there?

Early Career Advice 🪴

I understand that the job market is much worse than it was a few years ago. But the discussions in this sub do not match what I have observed with recent graduates from my program. 5 out of the 6 people I know in my program who have graduated in the past year have quickly received a job offer or a postdoc. And the sixth one is still technically not even done.

Can anyone share positive stories?
