Is getting a job in UX hard?

I've heard a lot about the importance of UX design in today's digital age, and I'm considering a career in this field. But I'm wondering, is getting a job in UX really that hard? I know the competition is fierce, and there are a lot of talented designers out there. But what specific challenges do aspiring UX designers face when trying to break into the industry? Is it difficult to find opportunities for entry-level positions, or is it more about developing the right skills and portfolio to stand out from the crowd? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.
