Just received a COBRA insurance letter from current employer - recently got hired by this employer. I’m confused, I thought COBRA was offered after you resigned or are laid off?

Read the letter. Knowing is half the battle, and it'll make you the COBRA commander.

Mandatory disclosure to all employees

I did read it, and it said it’s for “informational purposes only” and no action is needed, but isn’t it a bit unusual to receive this letter while employed by the employer? I’ve always received them after I left an employer not during employment...

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.
