I was a software engineer for Tesla and just got let go. I know many are about to get laid off too, considering how the sales of Tesla's EVs are slowing down from all the traditional car brands rolling out their own. Hope you are all prepared with your own plans!

I was let go back in January. Oh, not from Tesla but from a slowly growing small business. Took me just over two months to find a better role working for a global company and enterprise level. 40% raise is so nice! I would hope that you got severance or at least max coverage through state unemployment.

Have a big interview tomorrow. The question I dread the most is about why you’re looking for a new job. The honest answer is that there isn’t enough work to go around at my agency and I want to get ahead of the inevitable layoffs. What’s the best way to tell them this? Do I just make something else up entirely?

Still in a pandemic. Hiring freezes are still in place. Seeing a lot of local businesses go under. Do you think things will turn around in September or get worse? Do you think there will be more layoffs or terms “due to performance” and more businesses lost?

SPHR exam- has anyone ever been “randomly selected” for an application audit? This just happened to me and the sheer amount of effort that is going to go into collecting all the documents almost makes me not want to follow through. Since I didn’t finish undergrad, they’re asking for a copy of my high school diploma or transcript and that itself is going to be an absolute nightmare to get hold of. Guess I’m not really looking for a solution here, just venting.
