Big Tech has gotten much smaller over the past few months. If you got a pink slip and you’re planning your next move, we have tips to help.
And lastly, beware of health care scams. I was let go on a Friday, and by the following Monday, both my partner and I were receiving countless phone calls offering “plans” with premiums too good to be true. That’s because they were offering something called, which is not insurance, but a “network provider.” Do your research, look up reviews, and call your doctor to ask if they have heard of the plan.
You can begin by looking for part-time work in your LinkedIn, Indeed, and ZipRecruiter searches, and then start reaching out to companies directly. “We often don’t get the luxury of time to evaluate what we want and to be present,” Katherine Cordova, a people-ops professional based in Florida tells me. “I think, also, adjusting to the world around us and being flexible is helpful for navigating these ups and downs,” she explains. When I was hired at an NFT marketplace in 2021, I had no knowledge of crypto, but I took the job because it seemed cool and because I was desperate to get out of academia.
Don’t be shy about asking your friends and colleagues who they can connect you with and taking informational interviews. Send a DM to leaders in your field on Twitter and tell them about your situation. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve spoken with a seemingly random contact from LinkedIn or reached out to a friend of a friend of a friend for career advice, and then gotten a freelance opportunity right away, or crossed paths later on.
Networking is powerful and can manifest opportunities in both the short and long term. Get out there, ask questions, and show off your skills. And prepare for your next layoff now by making new acquaintances today.
