No, the NETs are starving.
Naturally, I'm joking, there are vacancies, they are in demand both in WEB development and in mobile/desktop development. Also, with the advent of things like Xamarin, there is an opportunity to enter the mobile application markets (and of course Windows Phone).
Yes, and migration to Java is a little bit not so difficult.

you can call the situation as a personnel hole and there will still be a personnel shortage for the next 5 years at least

It is important to understand one thing here: each language has its own niche. The .net technology stack is the development of Enterprise software. In simple terms, these are internal products of large companies, i.e. programs that automate business processes, where there is usually a lot of data, reliability, development speed, and scalability are important.
A simple example: in our company (2GIS), projects were written in C# that provide a full technological cycle: drawing a map, creating company cards, headings, advertising, etc. These are completely different projects that are developed by different teams, all this stuff is intensively exchanging terabytes of data corporate bus (also Microsoft technology).
From observations: in some Enteprise companies they write in Java, according to the subjective feeling, the balance is 50/50. And yet, in America for some reason they don’t like WPF)

My subjective view:
Becomes more and more popular. You will not find intelligent sisharpshchikov during the day with fire. We ourselves have been looking for a person on C # / Xamarin in Kazan for several months ...
I don’t know about .NET.

You can always find a job, if that's what you're talking about. As for Java, the share of large companies and outsourcers is high. With all the pros and cons.
