I have seen many people in my network that have in recent weeks been laid off. I have been laid off three times in my career. Each layoff was very challenging. I experienced fear, sadness, anger, resentment and all of the other emotions that can go with losing your job. Here is what I learned. 1. Your job does not define your worth. It is what you do, not who you are. Please, please, please remember that. 2. Ask for help. You don't need to be ashamed, it happens to more people then you realize. 3. You may be tempted to be mad. Don't stay mad for long. Anger can suck your energy. You need your energy to find your next opportunity. Forgive and move on. 4. If you get discouraged, which you will, identify that person in your network or family that can be your coach and help you keep moving. Talk to them. It's okay to get discouraged, just don't stay there. 5. Take care of yourself throughout the process. Exercise, eat right, get your sleep. All these things will affect your energy, attitude and outlook. 6. You WILL find another job. Remember you only need one job, not ten. :) Please reach out if I can help. Remember, this too shall pass!

I am about three months into my job search and here are some things I am learning: ➡ At this point, imposter syndrome rises to the surface more often than ever. Am I ever going to get a job? Do my skills and my experience actually matter? Am I worth hiring? (The truthful answer to all of these questions are YES!) ➡ People ARE willing and excited to help. This has been a breath of fresh air and the highlight of my search so far. As I have reached out to friends and strangers, more often than not, they have joyfully been willing to give me their time, give advice, and refer me to jobs where they work. ➡ Job referrals are EVERYTHING. In a season where it is challenging to feel like I am doing anything purposeful, I have felt the most purpose when I am applying for a few jobs I have been referred to rather than hundreds of jobs I found on LinkedIn. The thing that continues to drive me forward is my PURPOSE for changing industries and finding a new job: 🔥 I want to provide for my family while also being a husband and father who is physically and emotionally present. 🔥 I want to make an impact in the lives of the people I work with/for and be a blessing to them. 🔥 I want to always be a learner and grow in the new industry I hope to work for. For those who are in the job search: You are not alone, and when you are feeling discouraged, be reminded by your purpose, which is much more than just making money to pay the bills. Comment below ⬇: What is your purpose?

In between jobs at the moment but I've learned some new things on how to get your name out there. Focus on being yourself and show the results of the jobs you've done. Highlight your strengths and interests. Keep yourself structured. Don't get lazy, get out there and find your new job, even if it's a stopgap job. Be honest.

Hello LinkedIn community! 😊 Today, I'm stepping away from my usual development-related posts to share a personal life experience with all of you. A few months ago, I landed a job after several interviews. As we all know, securing a job isn't easy and often requires a bit of luck. This wasn't my first job, but I had been working there for about three months when a colleague told me about a new opportunity. This new job seemed much better than my current one and was commission-based. Driven by excitement, I decided to quit my job and switch to the new opportunity. However, despite the better pay, the new job came with its own set of challenges – the strict environment, non-stop work, and tough timings were too difficult for me to manage. Eventually, I had to quit the new job as well. So now, here I am, without a job and back at home. 😅 But, this experience wasn't entirely a loss. While I did lose my previous job, I gained valuable experience and learned some important lessons. At least now, I won't have any regrets about not taking that new opportunity. I believe there is something better in store for me. 🌟 What are your thoughts on this? Let me know in the comments section below! 👇

It took me a little over 80 days to land a job from the time I actively started looking for one! Navigating this competitive and relatively unfamiliar Canadian job market, I thought I was ready for: - ⁠Lingering uncertainty - Continuous self-doubt - ⁠Potential feelings of inadequacy Despite the mental preparation, facing one such setback threw me a little off and I ended up scribbling a reminder for myself. Thought of sharing it here, in case it resonates with someone going through something similar! You are going to get ghosted. You are going to get rejected. You will be considered underqualified. You will be considered overqualified. Your experience could be limited. Your experience could be irrelevant. Your skills may not align with their needs. Your background may not be what they’re looking for. Your confidence might be misinterpreted. Your persistence might be seen as desperation. There can be 100 reasons for them to pass on you, And yet, only a handful compelling ones to make you an offer! But you know you don’t want to settle for a role that doesn’t excite you. You would rather pursue something that aligns with your skills and interests. It might take longer than you want it to, but the right opportunity will definitely be worth the wait and effort. To everyone hustling through the job hunt grind: Every rejection is a step closer to finding your perfect fit! If you accept a role you are not passionate about, you’ll end up returning to the job search process sooner than you think. Stay true to your goals, and the ideal position will come your way.

I started 2024 by getting laid off from my retail job at Agway. At first, I was devastated, because while the job was not lucrative, it was helping us get by financially and keeping me out in the community. I have been applying to many jobs but realized that most of my applications are not getting through the algorithms, or most of them have been ghost jobs that weren't ever going to be filled. (It happens, we all know that's a thing now.) So, while I know I need a job and would like a career, I am not going to obsess about hypotheticals and stress about it. I will still apply to job postings but hold things very lightly in this economy because it doesn't seem like things are going to be stable any time soon. Instead, I work on hobbies that fuel my fire and make me a better human. Because the job supports the life; the life does not support the job. And it's worth waiting for society/a company that understands that nuance, instead of going for jobs that do not fit. If there is a company that has an editor position open that has that type of culture, I am all ears and would love to talk to you about that.

Do not let this job market fool you into an offer, that on a soul level, "feels wrong." You may be in a position right now that says, "I need this job financially" Likely you do NEED it But what if this offer is not the best in the long run? What if it... → Has few or no benefits? → The schedule isn't right? → Requires a long commute? → Has terrible company culture? → Includes duties you hate doing? → Goes against everything you believe in? Accepting the offer means in 6 months, 1 year or longer, you will be back in the same place you are now. Job searching. Starting over again. So consider declining the offer. Instead: → Stay consistent with your wish list → Don't compromise on the BIG things → Learn to decline before you feel too committed We have to understand that life is incredibly short. How you live your life matters and it's up to you to decide what is most important and to not compromise. Ever. If you are job searching right now, please take a step back and remember what is truly important before you accept that offer. Signed, Victoria 💕
