I was just let go from a huge round of layoffs. I have considered myself to be a high performer and was told it all came down to years of experience. I really loved this company and my heart is broken and confidence is shattered. Any advice or suggestions?

I’ve been laid off and, as I embark on my job search, I’d like to keep my marketing skills sharp. Any recommendations on must read books, or resources?

Hello DataScientists,
We all would love to know each other point of view on scope/ future of Datascience for next 10 years and how current recession or economy slowdown might impact Datascience jobs/layoffs.

Got let go yesterday. They are offering one months severance. Can I still apply for unemployment (NY State) now or do I wait until the month of severance is over. Should be a lump sum.

How do you not let a layoff continue to effect your confidence. I am noticing that I’m self-eliminating as I apply for jobs because now I am telling myself that I’m “not good at my job”.

I'm a new grad/new hire! What are the usual factors leadership consider when it comes to layoffs? Curious how I should position myself here for both long term and short term 👀. Also, how long would you recommend staying at the first company? I have no idea what my carrier goal is yet just learning everyday has been my goal so far.

Question for anyone who was laid off but found a new job:

If you request unemployment between the offer and starting, do you not receive the benefit? Worried about stating I've received an offer and that I'm no longer looking, though my new employer is the one having me wait a few weeks.

Hi Boschelrs,

NYC fish! Need some advice. I recently got laid off at my firm but am thankfully making it to the final rounds of another great firm. The only catch is that they're no longer hiring for the NYC office, only Philly and Princeton. Any thoughts or advice? The firm is tentatively staying remote until April but I think that could change given that cases are rising. Sincerely, a stressy depressy consultant

Recent graduate was laid off, have applied to dozens of jobs and still have been unable to land an offer. I interview well have a strong resume. Very concerned I might not get hired. Any advice, tips or general comments are welcomed.

How do you not take a layoff due to RIF (involuntary reduction) personally? I was told it is not personal. All full time positions except 1 were let go. Contractors on the team still exist and so does the team. I can’t help but wonder whether performance was a factor and it makes me really sad even after a few months! Any examples of how laying off full time employees over contractors helps with cost cutting? Thanks!

Hello! I’m looking for study materials for the PHR. Does anyone have recommendations for cost effective resources or perhaps willing to part with your study materials?

Wonder if anyone can offer advice on which cert to pursue next? I obtained my CompTIA Security+ last year and wondering if I should go for the CySA+ or Pentest+ next. I also have my AWS CCP and will be sitting for the Solutions Architect soon as well. Currently not doing security stuff at work but would love to keep my skills going. I was hoping one of these next certs will help me finally break into a security role and love the idea of pentesting but not sure if the CySA+ is more beneficial.

I need likes to access all features of this application. Please help out.

Hey moms,
How do contractions really feel? FTM and I’m starting to feel a little pain in the lower part of my belly. Given I usually have a high tolerance for pain(after a ton of sports injuries) not sure what is true labor/contraction pain. Trying to avoid a car baby or a lobby baby😅

P.S: I don’t have a lot of pain during my period (which is what my mum keeps saying it’ll feel like). So unfortunately that reference hasn’t helped! Any advice helps!!

How impactful it’s to be SHRM certified?

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.

I’m an HR Manager for a small (41 employee) company in Chicago. I make $70,000 a year no bonuses. I’m SHRM-CP and PHR certified with four years experience and a masters in HR. Am I underpaid?

So, a recruiter gave me feedback that my lack SPHR or SHRM-SCP is causing my resume to be knock out by AI and human recruiters despite my position and work history in Multinationals and being in Technology. They suggested that we put SPHR ( Lapsed). I let it lapse in 2017. What is your opinion? Plus if I were to take another certification - should I take SPHR or SHRM-SCP?

Also, I would hope we can use the material and rebrand into our organization’s leadership development program.
