Do you think it's easier to land a UX researcher job compared to UX design?? I haven't been able to get an interview in months and am getting worried. Great advice thank you :)

UX was hit hard on layoffs and hasn't bounced back yet. But I would try to do freelance or contract research work if you can. Like project based research, or extra hands on deck at big companies that haven't backfilled roles yet
But it's a fair point, not like it's a easy path by no means.
