Am I being pessimistic or is the career norm today for recently laid off younger professionals with a few years of post undergrad experience to 1.) take roles that they’re overqualified for bc the employers don’t want to train new employees and 2.) pursue masters or industry certifications to make them qualified for a role - all in the name of keeping company costs down and profits up to benefit the all mighty big shareholders?

It's refreshing to see RBC's committment to no 2020 layoffs. Anyone know if any other banks are following suit?

Have an interview with a company I really want to work for tomorrow. My last job I was laid off b/c of an acquisition&recently accepted a job at a diff company b/c I couldnt afford not to. I got this invite shortly after. The place I’m interviewing at the job wouldn’t start til next year. I dont want to seem like a job hopper. Do i tell them I’m at a new role or just not bring it up? The acquisition was public so they can see Im no longer employed with the most recent work history on my resume

Accenture folks, seeing lots of news about layoffs at other firms here. Are we in the same situation?

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
