I worry about people in the Tech field… I think AI is going to just gobble up all those jobs… It doesn’t ask for time off doesn’t ever sleep and it doesn’t need a paycheck

Great job!

Omg. I got laid off right before my birthday too! But unfortunately there's no such thing as unemployment benefits where i live.

Totally feel you. We only hear about the glitz and glamour of the successful ones.

Thank you for this video Jenn. I have been out of work for a long time from tech. There are things here I can incorporate going forward.

How about be a stay at home mom for awhile and raise your kid.

Damn shouldn’t drive and pick videos to listen to while you drive. I thought it said it said she got laid.

Thank you

8:14 - "what skills are in demand" - this is really important. ;)

Although it may seem like it, getting laid off is not the end of world. Treat your job search as your job. Take whatever training you can get or need to keep your skills up to date. However, if you are manager or owner, don't inform your employees they have been laid off over voicemail. That's the coward's way out and it can impact you when you are trying to retain or hire new employees since they can do the same background check that you perform on them. It would be better to tell the person ahead of time and in person. If that's not possible then at least try to tell them directly over the phone. I have been laid off a few times over my career, but at least none of my managers did it over email or voicemail.

Dang, I read the top of the thumbnail and was like " WOAH" then read the rest and was like " ok..makes sense" lol

Hi mam you gave such a awesome tips , thanks

you seem a few years out of college, let me share my experience. it is easy to tie your identity to your job so it hurts being laid off. with time the hurt heals and you will be in a better place in the future. keep skilling up and networking.

ME TOO

Thanks for the video! Startups are so tricky when deciding whether to join 😮

P R O M O S M

I subscribed to your channel and liked your video. Thanks for providing valuable insights and tips. You seem a very likable person, too. Keep up the good work!

The way the thumbnail reads is "I got laid" and then after a bit your brain sees the rest

would love to know how you would handle a situation where the company has multiple candidates past the final round, and you're not sure how far to push the compensation (in case they pass the offer to other candidates)

Thank you so much for this. This is literally my exact same situation. I should’ve applied for jobs months ago when they announced the company wasn’t doing well. Watching this video gave me a lot of guidance, as this is my first time experiencing getting laid off

Wish I knew this when I was talking to recruiters!

Been looking into houses and saw your video! Great tips but had one concern. Regarding ARM, isn't it still risky enough where the cons outweigh the pros? Just recently, we saw how rates have basically tripled since the pandemic with the Fed still looking to raise rates to curb inflation (albeit a current pause due to bank current events). Even if my first house isn't most likely going to be my permanent house, what are the chances I would pay more if I did an ARM now over a fixed rate and the Fed kept on doing 50bps to tackle inflation (especially as Jerome Powell has made it clear that he prioritizes curbing inflation over the current economic state)?

Thanks so much for sharing your experience ( love your About intro, especially the part with food and tinder) and job search journey! This content is v helpful and encouraging. I wish there is a community around my area with women like you willingly to share the career/life journey. I'm in the tech field, took a gap year, and started job hunting early this year. I'm interested in transition from a technical role ( I was doing TAM/SE) into program manager field. Would you mind to share and advise how to tap into program manager position? Thanks so much and keep up the great work!

Would love a video about how to rate startups

is this IU ? lool

Lol i stopped reading after the first line and I was like wait what?? What kind of video is this hahahaha XD

So organized and informative!!

All are great advices, thank you!

Before you go off in vacation or buy that expensive personal symbol of success you always secretly craved (whether it’s by Prada or Mercedes) make sure you have savings equivalent to at least six months take-home pay. At least! As well as being a safety net, it gives you a feeling of freedom that you need not put up with an awful workplace or colleagues, or pay lower than you feel your work is worth.

My biggest tip is to keep a daily, brief journal, page a day, on what you did at work that day. Often you are acquiring new skills, or taking in new roles, that you get so used to not thinking about, you forget to put these in your resume. The journal is also really, really important to note any interactions that seem either really positive (again, reminding yourself you did good work) but also jot down in a few words any events or interactions that made you ho, “Hmm…”. Not gossip, just your own direct experience/observation.

Take it from a 60 year old: if you are an employee, you are only an employee. You are ALWAYS dispensible. And often times, interchangeable. It has nothing to do with you as an individual, however good your work was. Once upon a time, companies only sacked groups of when the company was in trouble. Now, it is often because someone new to management has decided to look as if they are making changes. Maybe a startup knows what “roles” - which people or departments - to cut. With corporations, usually nobody in management has a clue what anyone actually does. The euphemisms like “sunset” and “laid off” only make it worse. Do not ever invest your sense of self, or self worth, in a company

very informative

Such a tough market out there. so helpful!

What made you decide on 'starting a family'? Would be interesting to learn the motivations behind it as well

I'm curious how people decide how much house they should buy as a percentage of their income?

i voluntarily left my role at a large tech company few months ago to take a personal break... and now feeling the nerves getting in to the job market in a recession! Thanks for your practical and common sense advice! It would be great to learn more about how you approached evaluating startups.

6 months of health insurance..... I got 2 weeks when I was laid off

The dog is like oh hell no I'm out of the situation at hand 👌

Ive been in the tech world for 40 years, I've gone through many recessions, cut backs etc. I've been let go a few times, any other time it's been my decision. But I'm not sitting on RUclips whining about it like all these fucking snow flakes who don't know what a days work really is. Try to be an adult and not a child.

Informative video! One thing I'd like to ask is if you could include more details such as job position and TC of the offers you've received (doesn't have to be exact numbers)... or would this be disclosed in part 2? It helps out knowing what the market conditions are like and what to expect. For example, I know many ex-FAANG who got laid off and had to settle for much lower TCs when they got offers elsewhere due to current market conditions. Knowing this really helps out people, like myself, on what to expect!

Looks amazing ❤

Noice song and food🎉❤

Omg when I saw the title of the video I read it as "I got laid from a startup & this is what I learned" I was like that sounds like interesting story, how did that happen? Smh🤦‍♀️😂
