It was a cloudy Tuesday morning when I suddenly found myself without a job. I walked into work and did my morning routine as usual and then the unthinkable happened - my director scheduled a meeting to let me know I was laid off. This didn’t catch me completely off guard, though. I saw several warning signs that caused me to prepare for this very moment months before it actually happened. As a result, I was able to land a new job with a 12% salary increase only 26 days after my separation date. In this video, I give 4 key steps I took to bounce back less than 30 days after experiencing an unexpected job loss.
