    They are not tech people. I worked in tech company. We had more lawyers and marketing people than programmers. We needed more coders but it was impossible to find.

    How do you step back and re-assess your career aspirations when you have a mortgage and kids to feed? You can't miss a week off work, let alone take a month to find new one

      The great resignation was a lie created by corporate America as an excuse to overhire and fire them as soon as those employees were no longer needed. The finance industry is next.

    But will some recruiters actually read your summary??? They sometimes glance through your resume technically within 10 -30 secs and that's not enough to read a summary. Maybe I'm wrong I don't know but it is what it is.

    • @careercoachk7217
      @careercoachk7217 Год назад

      True some recruiters may not take the time to read your executive summary until you have been identified as a candidate of interest. I still recommend adding one the same way I still suggest that my client create a cover letter. Any opportunity that you have to showcase your value to a potential employer should be leveraged.

    • @laurenashmore4026

    Not convinced by this report. Just saw somewhere else that most people who are laid off from "tech" find a job within 3 months. Any how are these people more skilled than doctors, nurses, architects, accountants, engineers, geologists, etc., etc? I don't think they are, I just think the "tech" companies were very profitable for a time and could pay them more. We'll see how long it lasts. When the tech bubble burst in 2000, the stock market didn't return to 2000 levels for a decade. This could happen again, not saying it will, just that it could. No one knows what will happen.

We need value added local manufacturing of everything, local sourced supply chains and real customer service and accountable companies.

    There is no confidence in the person that is being interviewed and what he's proposing is absurd.
    They don't flush out top talent during these layoffs so they are getting rid of their bottom 5-20%.
    He just said that VCs and others are cautious in investing in new ventures due to expensive capital and existing startup runways are shortening or disappearing but then proposes some unicorn village coming from the tech unemployed to create new startup's during hyper inflation, expensive capital, and continuing mass lay offs in Tech... Yeah, doubt it. Those folks who are laid off are looking to jobs to pay their rent or mortgage not talking and thinking about making the next Oracle or Blackberry.
