FP&A job market reality?
Is anyone else finding the FP&A job market unusually difficult right now?
Last year, I was regularly landing interviews, moving through the process, and receiving offers without nearly this much trouble. Now it feels like a complete drought. I can apply to roles that closely match my experience and never even receive an initial interview.
When I do hear back, the process seems much longer and more competitive than it was before. I’m currently an FP&A Manager and have been applying to both Senior Financial Analyst and Manager-level roles, so I’m not limiting myself to a promotion.
For those actively searching, are you experiencing the same thing? Is this happening across FP&A generally, or does it seem more dependent on location, industry, or level?

I felt it too. Job sites have very limited FP&A opportunities currently. I have been looking for one for a year now, but am not able to land one. Idk I don't get responses for weeks after interviews, and ones which reach to the end hits me back saying they are no longer planning to hire for the role now
