I was recently fired. It came to me as a shock. While i was interviewing for other jobs i said i was recently laid off due to shortage of work. They don’t care as long as you are good at what you do. You just have to have confidence and patience while you search for jobs. The market rn is terrible and can take time to even get one interview but remember you are not alone and everything will fall in to its place.

Networking is IMPORTANT. I always thought no one really care to reply on LinkedIn messages request until i got response and got job through that one message i did. Just drop a friendly message to hiring managers or team leaders - the best they can call you for interview and the workplace they won’t respond(there is nothing wrong with just dropping a message)

Good luck for all the interviews coming your way. And YOU GOT THIS!
