What To Do If You're Laid Off During The Holidays

On Monday, both Spotify and Twilio announced plans to slash headcount at their respective companies.
Cutting jobs around the holiday season is widely perceived as cold, brutal and lacking basic compassion. Workers are left jobless and without a steady paycheck. Instead of looking forward to some time to relax and enjoy being with their family and friends, the downsized employees must now scramble to write a résumé and seek new employment in a challenging environment for white-collar professionals.

In this LinkedIn Live, I will share with you what to do if you find yourself in this predicament this holiday season and how you can get a job quickly in the new year.
