Monday afternoon is a good time to reach out. Anything done on the weekend will get lost in the Monday morning email shuffle

I always advise between 10-12 o'clock on Tue-Wed-Thu for anything you want people to pay attention to, especially if they have otherwise no compelling reason to get back to you quickly. You want your msg to pop up new in their inbox and only after they've already had their coffee and have settled in and gone through their original stack of emails when they first logged in.

Monday

Resume gap: My position will be abruptly end in December (was informed this week). However, I won't be interview ready in the next 2 weeks. So how bad does a gap of 1-2 months appear to tech recruiters?

Common knowledge is it is a disadvantage to the candidate from a salary negotiation process. I'm also told hiring decisions at places like AWS & GCP take time and it might be a few months before an offer letter is received.
