I’m confused, what’re you gonna get out of this?

Product Head

Unless the company had only like 50 employees and everyone knew each other… what are trying to accomplish?

Good idea but the companies laying off aren't hiring right now

Apply to companies that recently did layoffs and mention a person recently laid off as reference.- Grapevine

My contract was terminated last month citing restructuring.
Honestly, I saw it coming but wasn't expecting it would hit like this

I tried keeping my mind distracted, but now it has started to sink

I live with parents and they aren't saying anything (they were feeding me before and still are, no change for them)

I have had thoughts of ending all this, but do not have the courage. What if it ends halfway and I am redundant my whole life?

Credit card bills are coming through now and being 42% of my ex-salary wasn't something I was prepared for. I thought I was a sane spender.

How did you tackle being laid off?

Keep looking around, apply and eventually you're bound to get a good job I promise you. Just treat it as a numbers game. Ask your parents help with the credit card bills if you don't have enough corpus, there is no shame in that. You can give the money back to them when you're in a better position. 
  
 You're a nice person from what I know of you in this platform, you got this sis! Ending it all is not a good option for the people who care about you, and you're probably gonna look back later and smile and be glad for making it through

This post is to help those affected by layoffs - we can refer them in our respective companies.

Please post your company and job title and if you're willing to refer.

My startup doesn't have open positions anymore. If anyone's interested in joining startups, | got around 10 interviews through JunoHQ (Google it for the application link), and 2 gave me offer out of which I chose the more stable one for obvious reasons.

[Referrals megathread] To those affected by layoffs

I have a total of 2 years of experience and changed 3 companies in 2 years so I left my first organisation in 6 months because There was no personal growth in that team then been layoff from 2 organisations in a period of 1.5 years these layoffs were due to financial issues in company not any performance issue so now in interviews I was asked why you change company so quick how should I answer this question and how does this impact my impression

Interview Suggestion

Recently i got laid off. Now that i start appearing for interviews should i make it explicit i was laid off and i am ready to join immediately. Or should I state something else as the reason of a break that might be there post 1st April ?

Should I admit to the recruiter, that i got laid off

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

One of my close friends is not liking the work in the current company due to the terrible WLB. He is planning to switch to a new company but doesn't want to show this current company experience of 3+ months. Have you ever come across such a situation? What's the best thing to do? If he reveals to the new employer then it won't be good on his resume because the company previous to the current one laid off 50% of employees and unfortunately he got affected too in that layoffs. So, due to tough market conditions he has joined a startup and realised that he can't sustain here for long.

Please guide if it's alright not to put the last 3 months experience in the resume and apply for new jobs.

Does hiding previous experience of 3-6 months create any trouble in the new company?

Analyst

Checking if there is anyone here who has had to layoff people... How did you do take it mentally and emotionally? Looking for answers from middle managers and HR folks who have to execute decisions taken by others.

Welcome to Data Scientists's Private Community

I am an ML engineer working in a startup.

My current situation is horrible,I am constantly stressed about getting laid-off(My performance is good,I got promoted a month ago). I came to know that my company will probably lay people off this month,since they are unable to meet targets.

Now,I got rejected in four interviews.
There is a lot to learn and revise.
Stats and probability.
Machine learning algos.
Deep learning architectures(got rejected because I was unable to explain the architecture of a complex model in detail).
DSA(got rejected twice in this round).
SQL (got rejected once since I was unable to solve the SQL problem).
ML ops(some recruiters ask this as well).

With the added pressure of getting laid off,my whole life is turned upside down.I am unable to focus.
Every meeting or discussion I attend I feel like people are evaluating me.( This was not the case before).
I don't know what to do.
It would really help,if you guys share your interview experiences below.

Software Developer

Hi 
I have been recently laid off from my company they have given me a reason as a lack in my performance overtime although that's not entirely true but to some extent it is.
I think according to my experience as SDE around 4.5 years.I don't have skills and knowledge one should have. I am a SDE 2 sometimes I think I still work and have skills as SDE 1 now I am looking for change 
Struggling with this thought of how to pick myself up as this condition is self inflicted 

How to get back ? Can anyone here help me?
