I got let go a week ago and I am already feeling the stress of finding a new job in this market. Any advice to deal with this?
Siemens also letting go of people? I will say, do not stress or it will hamper your interview performance. If you have savings, be calm and don’t rush. Take your time. Prep well and once your are sure you have prepped well, Ask for referrals, that speed up the process. Apply to every related position you come across on linkedin.
Reach out to your friends and extended family for support. Call up people you haven't talked to in a while just to catch up. Keep the relationships going. It will sustain you and keep your mood and spirits more stable as you navigate this, and the good attitude will naturally show in your interviews.
First breathe. Spend time outside, work out, listen to podcasts or read some books. It’s all about mindset. The more you believe in yourself and get stronger the more confident you’ll be in dealing with it and getting the next job. You’ve got this!
