I stopped applying to tech jobs
Briefly

The author has decided to step away from the tech industry, quitting both their job and the continuous cycle of job applications. This decision stems from a decade of instability in the tech sector, primarily experienced while working with start-ups. The process of job applications became a compulsive habit, leading to feelings of uncertainty about how to utilize newfound free time. By reflecting on the quick hiring practices of start-ups, the author highlights the contrasting nature of the job application experience and the stress it brought to their life.
...applying for jobs became a habit, and now that I am not looking, I was at a loss for what to do with myself with my new spare time.
What this meant is that I not only quit my decent-paying tech job, but I have also quit applying for new jobs.
It's simply a response to the instability of the industry I have faced in the last decade making an intentional choice working for tech start-ups.
Start-ups hire quick, which was one of their initial advantages and why a professional would consider working at start-ups.
