When will this recession gonna end??

Are any of you experiencing challenges securing a job as a fresher during this hiring freeze? I'm curious to know when you think this freeze might end and what strategies you recommend for improving job prospects during this time?

If it is challenging to get hired, maybe think what paid services you could offer to others? Do you know someone, that does not yet have website, online shop, or something else? Can you help some local business to solve some problems?

For example, I asked at local pizza restaurant, and local car repair mechanic. I did notice, that they did not have any website. I asked can I create website, negotiated some price, and created websites for them.

Also, maintaining website, adding updates, can be for some limited time, like some years. It can happen, that pizza restaurant changes owner, local car repair mechanic will get new website from tire partner company. This is normal, just help with any changes, and provide friendly service.

If you want to go into that path (help local business), first, try to look into Webpage builders like WordPress. Research how much it would cost to host a simple webpage (like services to offer, contact information, some prices, etc). After you gain that knowledge you can easily discuss and offer a solution to some local business. Makes sense ?

Also, when you already know Python and Django, look is it possible to do that webpage etc with Python and Django, and what does it cost to host with those, for example at eu.pythonanywhere.com or pythonanywhere.com
