Hey all! I am from Bangalore, and i have been posting in this Reddit for few days and liked the quality of the community here
Well, i wanted to Well, this happened this year after my former startup. i worked with lost funding and forced to resign with a month's pay. I came home at march and i started applying to jobs again , slowly, and nothing occurred. After a month, i got a deal as a freelance startup where i currently work. It took me 28 days to get my new role
So i have a few suggestions which might be useful:
Always be in touch with recruiters; literally we dont know when our last date is in our organization, and keep naukri profile active
Keep a buffer amount sorted out atleast one month expense for god sake time to help you sort out stuffs
Come out of house and start part time jobs in local it is okay to work in Apollo and other places for a few bucks and take-us out of the laptop zone We do not know when we will need them in detail too
Apply and pray but not only that, take any local jobs until you get any good job at least they can add financial contribution to yourself
Finally, always plan to start that side thing alternate to corporate anytime in this time, like what ever we like and stuff we will not know its value a day!
Now what we can do when we are in a full time corporate job :
Have a side income running either by direct or indirect ways we must have the flex to come out of the conference room without worrying for atleast 15 days
Start something from bootstrap an small venture or anything we dont know when we need them
Have minimum 2 income source literally in this economy having a other income from any other way is a blessing tbh we all must have any of it too
Remember we all are disposable and stop fighting the top 1 percentage , we all can be sent out in name of layoffs etc so being ready for the bad news is the new reality
I know many points are generic but this is the reality we have to realise that we are not next big stuff just
