I’m relatively new to this app, and it seems that people are mostly willing to help. What kind of position are you looking for, what’s your location preference, and how can this community help?
Depression sucks for sure, hopefully you are getting the mental health help you need.
Let us rally around you (and anyone who’s job hunting) by posting your career needs and let this job based network try to fulfill that need.
Congratulations on your job offer! I'm five months in to unemployment myself -- plus I got really sick, so that set my search back. Ugh.
I'm going to set up a little business for a bit of passive income -- and hopefully a side hustle if I manage to get full time work.
Tell your hubby to hang in there! Persistence is everything. Your kiddo will learn resilience from the way you handle this season of your lives...
I got one after a month of my termination after 3 months garden leave. It’s a contract job but good pay so I’m ok for now, gives me some breathing room.
I can feel you! My situation is very similar. We were laid off 10 months ago and still without any job offer despite applying to 400+ jobs and getting 7-9 interviews.
Ugh good luck. It’s so rough out there.
Congratulations on your job offer! Celebrate this, like BIG TIME, one of you in the house is employed and that’s a HUGE step in the right direction. I’m speaking from experience, having both parents laid off at the same time - double stressful. I’m sorry to hear your husband hasn’t found anything after 17 months. I don’t know what he does but if he’s higher up, in leadership, finding a position may be much more difficult. In the interim, could he take a job that’s temporary?
