Today, I experienced my second layoff in four years. It feels like I'm developing a callus from the repeated blows. I was leading a talented team, and while I had some inkling that this was coming, it still hit hard. Over the past couple of months, I've been actively applying for new positions, but the thought of receiving rejection emails is weighing heavily on me. I guess I'm just here to share my experience and prepare to dive back into the job market, particularly on LinkedIn, which feels like a daunting task. I appreciate the supportive comments and advice from others who have been in similar situations. It's comforting to know I'm not alone in this journey.
