Firm layoffs remind me of when Joe Pesci got smoked in Goodfellas. Walks into a room thinking he's getting promoted and then..."There are three parties on the line, including you."

Boomer. I am in between jobs. Laid off in 10/21 after 16+ yrs, with an ABA firm. RIF. Still on excellent terms. Took my time living off generous package and didn’t seriously start applying until 01/22. Made a rookie mistake and accepted first offer.
Turns out job wasn’t as advertised. Mutual parting of ways 3/22. Due diligence is critical.
Now interviewing a LOT. Some temp work, I still have “it”. I relate to all gens. Willing to mentor AND learn from all. Tech savvy, CTE from day one. Leads?

Lots of people loosing jobs due to Layoffs. Please ping me I can refer you in Accenture!

I’ve been thinking about looking for a new job, but given everything going on with the Coronavirus and layoffs, it doesn’t seem like this is a good time to start looking. What do others think?

Is publisis sapient a good company to join.. Coming across a lot of layoff news on LinkedIn. I have an offer from sapient (YOE 4.2). Shall I join ??

Know this may be a long shot in terms of actual responses but:
@PPMDs, what are your thoughts on the current/impending COVID specific layoffs at your firm?

E.G. Glad for the opportunity to reduce the headcount of mid performing SMs with little/no chance of making PPMD? Sad to see a firm you’re a part of undergo such unforeseen circumstances?

Do you take the current economy into consideration when receiving job offers? For example you receive a good offer from a company like Meta/TikTok but are hesitant because they could be laying off soon or rescind an offer versus a lower offer at a more traditional and stable company that tends to be less reactionary with regards to layoffs? Not my current scenario but just curious. I would like to make a move from current employer but this economy has me spooked.

Can any ACN fish refer? Firm issued a wave of new hire layoffs which happened to affect me.

How do you deal with layoffs?
-for those now suddenly unemployed, and
-for those who didn't get laid off but are now dealing with a bleak looking workplace

Hey Fishes (Future Sharks 😎)
Can anyone guide me to prepare for interview at Bosch for AI/ML Pre-sales Consultant role.

Great India clearly supported Russia by abstaining on UNSC bill that condemns Russia.
Now India should not expect any support from the UN or the Quad if it is cornered by China eventually.
Also it my make the west ponder over any more FDI in India and they might also cut the existing trade ties and MOUs inevitably affecting the jobs.
Well done Government 👏
PS: Russia didn't supported India when China invaved in Galwan

With product design questions, I struggle to identify user groups. Once I do everything starts flowing and I’m confident. But the initial identification of user groups is something I find challenging. What’s your go-to way of doing this? For example, the question “design a podcasting app for truck drivers.” What types of truck drivers can I select so that I can prioritize a user group to focus on and begin identification of pain points and solutions?

How much would you ask for a Product Design position in a start-up with 2 years of experience? They are offering me benefits and equity. Thank you!

Did Republicans think this through? Are they assuming they’re now powerful enough they can stop the electoral reaction to this? I’m seeing people radicalizing in real time across my social networks. Republicans supporting Biden. Formerly moderate Democrats coming out in favor of court-packing.
