Got laid off but knew it was coming. Was working for this company for years, even during college. Last thing I was told to do was to train an Ai bot by feeding it my graphics and some new ones I created for upcoming campaigns. After it was able to automate the process, they let me go. I have been applying for a couple weeks now and have had a couple interviews but nothing came from them. Starting to feel discourage and considering changing careers. Any recommendations? or advice? TIA

Damn, I've heard of companies being sneaky and having people train their replacements. But to have you train an AI bot that would replace you, is next level cruel. I guess this is the future we all have to look forward to.

Fellow designer here (interior design)! Things I wish I knew about the job search process when I first got laid off: make your portfolio STRONG. Have a market in mind and build your portfolio off of that. I had to create some new work to apply to jobs that were seeking specific products.
Don’t feel discouraged if you don’t get hired right away. This is normal especially in the current market.

Hey guys,
I recently cleared 1st round of interview for data scientist role in Deloitte. 2nd round is with the director and most probably it will be a case study based interview. Anyone have idea, what kind of questions should I expect?

Interviewed for final round, Paytm. Post few hours, received mail from HR regarding required documents such as salary slips etc. What does this mean? I’m confused.
FYI , salary negotiation is not happened yet.
