So I started working in the last decade(around 2011) and my safety net has always been my skills and the ability to get another job whenever I want or maximum about 6 months.

However given the current market scenario getting a new job has become so much harder that I am starting to question my skills and whether that safety net still holds true.

How are people dealing with this?
