just wait and see

Getting a job is related purely to economics. When working in a business you have to produce value that a customer is willing to pay for, or to a lesser extent you have to reduce the cost of someone else providing customer value. This is how the job market works and if you can do this well you will always be employed (However areas that produces customer value changes).

The key to providing customer value is skill and your skill has to exist in a way that is relatively scarce so people are willing to pay for it. Demand for your skill needs to be there but it’s normally common sense whether someone is willing to pay you to do something (having a scarce skill that people are willing to pay for is a marketable skill).

To become skilled requires practice, you need to learn how to do something then work on it until you are distinguished from the crowd of “normal” people. In certain areas (white-collar) you are using your brain and the best way to develop your brain is by reading.

Therefore, more reading =  better chance of getting a job.

Note: if you don’t have a marketable skill then you are just selling your labour, and anybody can do that.
