Start reaching out to recruiters who might’ve added you before on Linkedin - I’d start there since they are almost like a centralized station of information for hiring needs.

Also, not sure who laid you off….but if it’s GT…I’m sorry, you deserve better

I’d probably contact a local recruiter and they’ll take you through it

Exactly - set up calls with any local recruiter you can find. Update your resume and run it by them with what you’re looking for and you should get the most visibility that way

Also if you find a company you like, look directly on their website for jobs. Some companies post there and don’t use external recruiters. Best of luck to you!

So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android). I completed the coding assessment and now they want me to go through a round of 5 hour interviews next week. Is there a good chance I'll be hired if engineering managers are reaching out to me? I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

Ultimately I think we will be ok, but I know he's hurting / stressed / and could use a supportive partner.

Recent lateral junior associate in brand new practice where I'm the only associate. I'm probably going to bill 1,500 hours max this year due to being very slow and taking time off for a delayed honeymoon which I disclosed during my interview process. I have been told my work product is good, I don't turn anything down, I participate in non-billable work, I'm responsive and I always let people know I'm available to help. Do I need to be worried about getting fired for low hours?

Follow up post to my last post…My husband was laid off from the company where I also work. I am feeling really isolated / depressed about working and moving forward. I’m also getting to a stage where I’m really sad that people haven’t reached out to either my husband or myself to send well wishes or provide support. It’s like they don’t know what to say or I make them feel awkward so they don’t bother…I’m trying to focus on a few that have been supportive but it’s hard…Any words of advice? 😞
