I was recently laid off and it has been very hard emotionally. My family is not in a financial situation where I can enjoy taking time off and I have been looking for a new role day and night. I have only had a few responses and then I have been ghosted during the screening process a couple of times now. Why it is okay for recruiters to ghost candidates nowadays and how do I handle this without losing my mind!?! How have others dealt with being laid off?
