Realistically speaking, people who are employed are a safer bet than someone who is out of work. An employer would have no idea if you were fired or simply caught in lay off. Tough pill to swallow, I’m aware as I’ve been there before, but working with recruiters will help up your credibility in the eyes of employers.
I agree. When I asked why would you consider me over those who are looking due to layoffs the response from the recruiter was “bc you’re not desperate and wouldn’t leave as soon as you see a better opportunity”
I didn’t apply for the role but was sent a message through LinkedIn if I was looking
It’s all about being at the right place at the right time!! Got laid off and got a job offer in less than 2 weeks. Most iconic thing I’ve done actually and I have no awards
I remember this. It was iconic.
Maybe your book just honestly isn’t strong enough for the roles you’re seeking
Where you located I'm hiring a senior writer
I'm based in Austin but open to relocating for the right opportunity.
If they were employed then there is probably a vacancy. Since you seem to be following these people, contact the recruiters/CDs at their former company 👍
But overall yes there is a preference (conscious and sub) to hire employed people for a number of reasons. So… pretend you’re employed… you can put that you’re a freelancer and unavailable or available soon. Who is gonna know? No one
