TBWA NY layoffs today.
Goldman layoffs hit quick. 🫡 good luck out there
I was in the final stages of an interview with Microsoft two weeks ago, in partner marketing. Then the recruiter told me they were putting the hiring process on hold to assess the need for the role. Well, then we heard about Microsoft layoffs last week. Seems like most were in Xbox and Project Alpha but there’s not a lot of information out there. Should I hold out any hope that I’m going to get this job? Any insights on how much these layoffs have impacted the marketing org and/or new hiring?

OP, I got made redundant years ago, and was unemployed for 6 months. I did spend 2 months cruising around travelling and backpacking, to get some perspective, but once I got home and hit the applications, it was scary. Silence from the market was deafening.
I just treated every week day like work, I hit recruiters and online apps, went to the gym and had lunch, then got back to it.
Patience and determination will get you through this!
a month. Was laid off too. What worked is actively applying in linkedin - both FT and contract and also reaching out to network. Updating linkedin also helped.
What companies are laying off? Was under impression we are still in boom times for consulting
^ yeah did all of that. It’s only been a week since I got the news, but just feeling more and more discouraged everyday. Took me 4 months to find the job I had, and 2 weeks into my new role they laid me off.
which firm ?
Laid off from an industry role, not consulting. Fortune 20 company.
2.5 months. Also worked at a restricted client at the time so there were extra hoops to jump through
PwC has been laying off a bunch of folks from their Advisory practice in expectation of a slow down in 2019-2020.
Any update on status OP, you land a job?
