Has this ever not been the case since the great recession?

yea, but it got worst i think, especially when job sites started to appear online. while it was easier to find jobs online, its harder to apply, because yor competing against more people at once. maybe for a service industry job that doesnt require any fancy degrees, but degreed jobs, forget it.

That was true for millennials as well.
