Hey product community, looking for any type of referrals. Im looking for a new product role after getting laid off last month.

Im a senior PM with 8+ YOE building payment products including payment integrations, payment rails and credit card API integrations. Open to remote roles in Canada / USA.

Any type of referral would be great. Even though Ive had a few interviews since the layoff Ive noticed the job market is so different from when I last started job hunting many years ago.

I don’t know that anyone would blindly give you a referral, especially on an anonymous app like this.

I suggest looking into “never search alone” - it’s a process that was created by a product manager, so a lot of your PM skills will be used to help you find the RIGHT job

You underestimate the lure of employee referral bonuses and goodwill. Many people have responded to posts like this, had a thirty minute zoom call and then referred someone.

Does anyone have any tips on certain job positions or companies where an LLM would prove to be useful with my background?
I'm starting to feel quite stuck in this situation and it's very demoralising.
