laid off from my tech job | what's next?

What to do when you're laid off from your job? The tech sector has been struggling with layoffs, restructuring and budget cuts. I recently got laid off from my tech job. In this video I share my thoughts, how I am doing and what's next. This is truly a crazy time we are in

I'm so sorry to hear that you got laid off, I know that you probably feel so scared at the moment not knowing what lies ahead for you. I wish you the BEST!

[@AB_AB]

You're not alone! You got this.

[@aslkdjfzxcv9779]

been in tech 3 decades, never seen it this bad. hang in there.

[@misokatsu99]

same 29 years (soon 30) never seen it this bad.

[@ashchbkv6965]

how bad?

[@marcK599.]

Over 20 years for me. Pay is getting too high in the US so companies are doing more with less and offshoring more

[@xxxx-tb4de]

Yes, mostly because of unbelievably high hiring in the last few years with much higher salaries. This needs to come down to balance out.

[@wrightvcx2249]

I was also laid off recently. Keep applying for the new jobs. Update and customize your resume for the different roles and organizations. You will easily land a job in the next few weeks.

[@headhunter88944]

Its just a matter of time. Keep trucking and stay positive. Its the beginning of a new chapter.

[@tkuanay9752]

Very sad to hear. these moments will also pass off. keep being positive.

[@TheRVSN]

Do not wait: apply for any possible job for income. Forget about "dream job". Take what is available, maintain skills at home and keep trying to get back to tech.

[@morpheusFromZion]

Yeah even WalMart… FUCKING Wal⭐️Mart… is being selective with who they hire… Goddamn 😡

[@retrogametech1626]

Learn to be a coal miner or off shore oil rigs pay good

[@ivang9885]

Hold on to your teeth people, this layoff season is just getting started

[@thecharleschow]

You will be okay. Hang in there!

[@nikolaimakarov3034]

damn more power to you ❤

[@technicalbaatien]

Wish you best!

[@pradipartyst5809]

Always be on the job market - you never know what the future holds.

[@GdeVseSvobodnyeNiki]

Got laid off from my tech job. Good thing that i've had a gut feeling and started doing job interviews couple of months prior. Timed that perfectly - accepted an offer just about the same time layoff news about whole team termination rolled out.

[@computer-training-for-seniors]

Becca, be brave and have the courage to start a side hustle that you can grow slowly into a full time business of your own. Trust me it's worth it in the end. Persistence and determination are omnipotent.

[@rl1271]

What kind of analyst work do you do? I’m also a business analyst

[@VIPAH]

The fact it was a voice message via email, not even a face to face meeting with staff members?!! That is f$%ked up! Usually you get 2 weeks notice of termination but told you last minute?! Did you even get paid out for your annual leave?! 😢

[@barneycasting8331]

The salaries in the tech industry are too high, which is why companies are always trying to cut corners, budget cuts, etc. These tech employees gets so many benefits and company-paid things that other employers never provide. Thus these businesses are always trying to balance their budgets.

[@forwork2601]

That’s a super nice house

[@user-pq2ze5yh5e]

Becca- you are a wjnner! You will find a new job that will be better than the last one!

[@SixNAC]

"Today will be your last day", it's so crazy to think how easily you're getting fired in the US, zero protection?

[@MatthewMS.]

Tech is becoming increasingly ruthless like finance. I made it, you can too.

[@user-qd3pi5ji7q]

No mean tweets thought, right?

[@giannagiavelli5098]

What languages do you program I know many companies that are hiring

[@johnpulawski35]

u drive a jaag?

[@Canadian-Boi-]

Maybe that coffee shop is hiring

[@mattp4079]

Ill guarantee that 75% of those restaurants are hiring.

[@DaleWinarski]

i woulda told them to go butter their chicken and start delivering tandoori door to door.

[@vantrogh]

We r not living in the normal time. Time to make choice: stay where we r or entertain the ìdea of change. Hint: FreeWill, Services To Others, Spirituality...😇😇😇

[@jasonlove1380]

Walmart is hiring

[@marcK599.]

I think Starbucks would be a better option short term

[@phillriley9688]

It's great that you're using this time to do important things,like updating your résumé. If I may, it would help if you also used this time to set up & have a personal objective that goes beyond the jobs you work. Not sure what field in tech you fall under but something like building a personal app or website or whatever. It will help you stay grounded. Otherwise,keep looking forward.

[@moneybags183]

0:40 no offense but why do you hold your pen like that?

[@jooky87]

[@BenQotsa]

[@SR-ti6jj]

No shot you actually write like that

[@TvGunslingeRvT]

Get another job duhhh

[@orange6562]

I think you were laid off because of the way you write.

[@tinteraminator]

Left handed writing always looks weird.

[@sr-bo2xj]

Left-handed people are much more intelligent compared to the rest...

[@yardgrid]

Wait til you see an American try to use a knife and fork. Sheeeesh
