Hopefully a sharp recovery by end of Q3, but no doubt some firms/practices will be impacted to the point of creating layoffs—I think about my travel & hospitality colleagues a lot :/

It’s so nice that every agency laying off people, have those left standing (and other agencies) trying to hustle jobs for their unemployed friends, but there are also a ton of people who were unemployed prior to Covid...so no severance, job hunting lot longer, and not earning income for longer time...hurting even MORE due to quarantine.
