I lost my job last year bc of relocation of the team. I worked really really hard to land internally. I did land internally but at a job in which I am completely uninterested. Not the experience you were looking for I'm sure, but that was my experience.

Never been through it myself but seen close friends work through it. I believe it speaks volume on how resilient a person is willing to be. Set short term goals in life and career-wise. Consider the Wall St. Decathlon this year---get in great shape, network and contribute to a fantastic cause. Keep your chin up and remember you are much stronger than you give yourself credit for. Much love.

See the posts from c 3 days ago about being laid off

My job was eliminated when I was about 2 years into my career. I worked hard to get internal and external offers, and had four to choose from before my employment officially severed. I ultimately relocated to NYC and took an external roles. My advice re: internal positions- only work to get one if you really want the job. If often negates your severance to even get an internal offer, which isn't worth it if you're just going to look elsewhere soon anyway.

Still trying to bounce back...

Industry vets - in your experience how recession proof is insurance? I was not yet in the job market last recession but I watched my mom get laid off and struggle to find employment during that time for the next 1.5 years. I was wanting to hit the job market towards the end of this year, but now I worry that if I do move companies, the recession could put me in position of last one hired first one fired. Is it better to stay put?

I am seeking new employment, I was recently laid off due to lack of work. I would very much appreciate any leads. I have a Bs in Construction Management and over 15 years experience with Revit and AutoCAD and 7 years of plumbing design. I have solid references and impeccable work ethic. I truly enjoy what I do. Working remotely the last three years has become a way of my life and supports our current situation well, therefore I am seeking a similar role but will consider other opportunities.

Who is still in denial about a housing correction? The Fed just made another .75% increase. Powell said they won’t stop until inflation is 2%. He also said a recession would be better than the consequences of unchecked inflation. He announced he will bring rates to a “restrictive level” until “the job is done”. He said that labor demand needs to soften (ie: layoffs). He very explicitly said he wants to slash demand and that housing needs a “correction”.
