I have a $100k job posted that I got 10 resumes for. I had to keep it open for 3 months to get 10 resumes. Another $75k job was posted by my org, got 3 resumes. I’ve been hiring people for 15+ years and I normally get 20-50 applicants for jobs at various levels (very specialized field). Something is wrong.

This right here... I hear this a lot.
As a hiring manager, it can drive ya nuts but I don't blame people at all for not wanting to take the risk.
Every time there has been an economic downturn, I see people hunkering down. They stop spending (start saving), paying off debt when possible, and they don't leave their jobs if they feel like their job is solid.
