What’s the best you’ve seen anyone bounce back in their career?
My personal story is of a friend who got fired from Meta in the US and is now working as a founding engineer in an attractive startup making the same money but working on way cooler things. When he got laid off at meta he was so broken.
Know about 2 people who didn't get US visas after graduating. One was a MBA from Yale, another MS from ASU.
These guys had to first return to India and bear bad student debt while earning in INR.
A couple years down the line, they've taken up tech roles in Singapore or Dubai. They've also paid off the loans and are doing financially well.
How long did they take to pay off those loans of 40L-50L?
I got laid off a few weeks ago and I'm in dire need of motivation.
Pls share your story about how you bounced back after being laid off. How long did it take for you to land a comparable position?
Thanks!
