I moved to the UK last year and have been job hunting since. I've applied to about 800 positions and attended around 20 interviews. Alongside freelancing as a software developer and working as a warehouse operative, I was recently laid off (warehouse operative). During this time, I've been actively reskilling in C# .NET. My ultimate goal is to secure a software developer position in a UK-based company, or I continue building my portfolio as a freelance software developer.

Hi all,

Seeing some posts on layoffs in barclays. Is it true and which category of Employees will fall in that list.

I’m a Junior accountant, recent MBA grad in Finance, located in NYC, just got laid off due to a merger. Anybody hiring or know any opening positions?

Given the outbreak, are places actually going to be hiring right now? Recently laid off from 9-5 and my freelance is starting to fizzle.

If you were an Uber employee that got laid off, how have you been faring?

I was recently laid off and I am actively search for a new role. I am mainly targeting ScrumMaster, Product Analyst, and Business Analyst jobs, but I am open to others.

Must be located in Austin, Texas or fully remote.

Stuck in a weird limbo where I want to leave my job more than anything but grateful that I have one at all with all the layoffs in our industry. It's a new kind of trapped. Anyone else feels the same?

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.

Hi Sharks,

I got an offer from FTD for permanent work from home. But i am not sure about the company.. Also the market conditions are bad too.. There are many layoffs from various companies.. Looking for suggestions..

After 6 years of temporary contracts and unstable situations, I find my dream job in my dream company. All of a sudden the world goes upside down and I get laid off. I start sending hundreds of applications, with only 2 recruiters getting back to me to say I don’t have experience for the job (this is how it works in Italy). Add a terrible health situation in my family and it seems there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. Ugh. 😞

Meta/FB laid off 11000 employees. Linkedin is full of these posts. Very sad & shocking to see this! Tough times ahead.

how many employees got laid off from zs in recent days and which job profile has been affected the most?

So are the layoffs at Deloitte over ?

Fishes need ur help...my friend s been laid off without notice...any quality analyst jobs please let me know....would be really grateful 2 u all...

Looking for respectful ways to manage helping people in need of a job or seeking mentorship. I get 3-4 requests a week from mutual contacts asking if I can connect with a former colleague (always broad). Typically the ask is a 30-45 min call. I’ve been laid off, I know how hard a time it is, but equally am working long hours, parenting and want to reserve time for those I know. How do others manage these extra calls into their weeks?

Is anyone expecting agency layoffs at the moment?

Got laid off on July2, still no unemployment payments from NYS. Is everyone having that kind of delay? Impossible to get through to unemployment on the phone.

Anyone expecting layoffs due to COVID-19? There’s an indefinite hiring freeze and most promotions and have been paused. 👀

Hi! can anyone please refer me in ZS? I’ve the job Id.

hi ,

Anyone work on the footlocker account at PHD? Wonder how’d that be

Anyone celebrating 4/20 in West La?

Do you work somewhere where quality is valued over efficiency? Where can I find this? In-house? Small boutique?

The Albertsons (Jewel) and Kroger (Mariano’s) merger would be terrible for Chicago. I doubt antitrust will allow them to retain all stores here. Maybe a player trying to enter the region will buy out those stores.

To NYC members: Anyone here planning on sitting for FAR in December or January and would like to join a weekly (or biweekly) study group on the UES?

Anyone using services like Motley Fool or Seeking Alpha or any other paid service for stock recommendation? Looking if they are worth it or not

Hi Fishes,

I Recently told company A verbally I will accept their offer if they match a job offer I have from Company B and they did. When I informed Company B that I will not be accepting their offer they gave me a sweet counteroffer that i’m seriously considering, What should I say to Company A?

Hello team,
I know that onsite opportunity at Oracle(non oci) is slim.
But if someone has got that opportunity, could you please share your experience?
Do they sponsor L1B for ICs who perform very well and impress the manager?
Apart from USA, has anyone got international assignment to some other country?

Hi All, i have a total of 7.6 years of experience and i want to move to IT backround. Can someone suggest me any IT course which will help me to switch without BE.

Trying to transition and looking for a general progression of how you would go from essentially zero to entry level job as quickly as possible?

Currently going through the CS50 course to get a very basic introduction. Trying to avoid going back to school but open to boot camps if the community thinks they're with it.

Thanks in advance!

Does your firm let you take 28-30 December off? Many of my team members won’t be working those days and I decided last minute that I’d like to travel somewhere between Christmas and the New Year.

Do you have a favorite portable monitor that you can hook up to your laptop?

Hey y'all, kind of a two part question:
1. I enjoy the people management more than individual contributor stuff. What career paths do you see in our industry for people who are managing support engineering teams?
2. What certifications are valued today? Seems like being a AWS Cloud Practitioner is a good general one, but are there others that stand out?

Does anyone offer any resume writing services? Or willing to let me use theirs as a template? I have 6 years of CS experience & a Masters degree but I am having no luck with landing a CSM position within the 6figure range, it’s seems like these companies are not even looking at my resume. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone else’s team experiencing heavy attrition? I’m unsure if I should start looking for another job or if that’s being too reactionary. I also really like my job currently but there are so many unknowns with so many people leaving.

Who owns renewals at your company? Customer Success? Renewal specialists? AEs?
There are a lot of articles out there but doesn't seem to be a consensus on this topic. My company is struggling with this and curious as to how others handle it.

Hey everyone, I have my first interview coming for Project Management role at Meta. Any tips or recommendations? Does anyone know the layout of the interview?

So, after a year of not so quietly making it known that I wanted to make the transition from the tech side to the business side I have officially been extended an offer to take on a Project Manager internally (coming from a software configurer). The client I have been assigned to has many of our products, however, the specific project I have been assigned to is a problem child and has damaged the companies relationship with the client. Any advice for a new, young PM being shoved into a problem?

Anyone assisting to the Snowflake Summit in Vegas ?

I feel like there are more people engaging on professional networking platforms (like this one) right now. I'm wondering what will happen when all goes back to normal. Do you think people will still stay this connected?

Finally getting around to getting a CS degree. Taking a class taught in Haskell and a class taught in JS. In other words, a purely functional language which you can basically read just by looking at type signatures, vs... just no.

Front end people, why?????

Ex-strat consultants who left for FAANG and weren’t happy. Why and how have you pivoted?

Would you accept a job offer where pair programming is mandated 100% of the time? I have no real experience pair programming so would like some perspective.

How do I measure what I'm "worth" in the market? I know YOE play a role, but I don't know how to measure based on perf or whatnot. What makes one person worth more than another for the same role?

Anyone at Meta willing to help with a referral. Found a req Im interested in and would greatly appreciate the help!

Anyone here have knowledge about viasat? Pto, culture, etc?

Resigned from my job for blatant racism last week. Been a contingent worker for 6 months. The manager that recruited me unfortunately left after a couple weeks and went to another company. She however recommended me for the permanent opportunity to higher management. The acting manager came in, permanent role was posted, I applied, interviewed……manager told me they chose someone else external for the role. I could sense the manager had no intentions to hire me permanently

What's the most unhealthy habit you have and does it affect your work? I stay up late bingeing Netflix after a tough day and then I'm tired the next and it's a cycle.
