Job Market in NYC

Has anyone been seeing anything lately? I have been on and off testing the waters for about a year. Very transparent with all recruiters and firms during this time. I turned down a role initially positioned as a lateral, but it would have been a more junior opportunity. Then, I turned down a family office gig which would have been the same comp but a less clear trajectory.

Now I feel motivated to move but haven't seen many opportunities.

Currently a VP with solid transaction experience but not a household name.

Just curious about what people are seeing these days.
