How to keep going? I was recently laid off. While this is normal in my industry atm, it really hurt and has left me in a very vulnerable place. I had covid, very very badly in 2020. I was in the news many times and I almost died a couple of times. Work was great while I was on…

My last job was the first place in over 25 years where I felt excited every day to go to work. I was permanently remote and I worked with people around the world. I was surrounded by leaders, not bosses. And it made my extremely varied resume make sense. After 3 years, they had…

Does hiring really stall this time of year? I have been looking for a new job for a while and it has not been going well. I have had a few recruiter screens, a second interview, and a lot of jobs being told that they are on hold. I have had a number of well-meaning friends tell…
