Are tech jobs really dying in 2026? With 55,000+ global tech
layoffs in just the first quarter - Amazon cutting 16,000

job market in 2026 - no sugar coating, no fear-mongering,
just real data and actionable advice. You'll learn what's

Whether you're a final year engineering student preparing
for placements, a fresher struggling with deferred joining
dates, or someone wondering if it's still worth pursuing a
