Crazy bro me and a FEW yeah a FEW of my coworkers got laid off today. Like more than half the office.
shyt crazy out here but I think it was my company making bad investments and now they chopping shyt down.
So it’s been a few weeks of applying for jobs and being on the market/selling myself on Linkedln.
This market is shot. I can see how many people apply for jobs and their qualifications. It’s shocking how many senior, or at least appear to be senior, people are trying to get employed even at entry level postings. I on the other hand have been very picky and rightfully so. I’m not dropping down in my position for shyt.
Today I was offered a few interviews from different companies out of nowhere. Even companies I didnt apply to and contractor roles. A senior security analyst position, IAM position, and a engineer position.
I’m probably going to entertain two of these really because there’s a position in a NOC I really am interested in due to the low stress environment, pay, and remote opportunity. Young company too.
It’s hope out there for me and I use hope loosely because even being asked to interview isn’t a guarantee. I’m just curious how these companies have money for 6-12 month contracts for workers but will layoffs hundreds.
