I don't think he's wrong, but I could be biased by my experiences. As a principal-level with a skillset around mobile, web, infrastructure, and security, I have never had trouble having more work than I wanted, either as a consultant or a FTE.

What type and level of developer are you referring to?

I'm talking about senior level. Recently, as in the past year. Something has been going on in the senior level developer job market. I don't know maybe I'm an anomaly as I have many public projects, experience at top companies. But I haven't been able to find work. There has been at least two posts recently relating to this trend so maybe there is something.
