I recently lost my job at a tech startup where I was working as a software engineer. The layoff came unexpectedly, and I’m feeling lost about how to approach the situation. I really enjoyed my role and the team, and I’m wondering if there’s a way to get my job back. I’ve been considering reaching out to my former manager to express my interest in returning, but I’m not sure if that’s a good idea. Has anyone else been in a similar situation? Any advice on how to navigate this would be greatly appreciated.
