The Job Market Just Got WORSE in 2026 (Here's Why)

The 2026 job market is officially cooked. 🍳

In this video, we break down the brutal reality of trying to find work in 2026 — mass layoffs, ghost jobs, fake hiring, lowball wages, and companies using AI as an excuse to cut jobs while claiming they “can’t find workers.”

People are applying to 300+ jobs, landing interviews, and still getting zero offers. Warehouse jobs now require resumes. McDonald’s says candidates are “overqualified.” College degrees are turning into debt traps. And AI bots are fighting other AI bots just to decide who gets rejected.

We look at real stories from people living this nightmare in real time:

Tech and transportation layoffs hitting levels not seen since 2009

AI replacing white-collar and entry-level jobs

Companies posting jobs they never plan to fill

Interview processes that feel like pure theater

Desperation wages for people with degrees and experience

This isn’t just a bad economy — it’s a broken hiring system.
The old promise of “get educated, work hard, and you’ll be fine” is collapsing in front of our eyes.

Are you getting ghosted?
Getting rejected after multiple interviews?
Being offered disrespectful pay?

Let’s talk about what’s really happening in the job market — beyond the headlines.
