How much more does it cost and what do you have to do to get it?

Yes. You have to pay the full premium. You don't get the company contribution to your premium. Just call the health insurance company. They should send you COBRA paperwork anyways. Health insurance companies and Deloitte are required to by law. Sorry to hear about the lay off. Be well.

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?
