Laid off
About 3 weeks ago I was laid off from my job that I had had for about a year. It wasn't due to performance or anything like that, the company just went through some routine personnel cuts. I was let go from our department because I was the most recent hired. I have no ill feelings toward the company or their workers.
I immediately, within the same day, flooded my updated resume and cover letter to over 40 postings across 4 job search websites. I also ended up being on 3 recruitment listings. I went through 3 job interviews and a recruiter interview in a 3 week period.
The last interview I had was fast tracked. The interview was scheduled for Monday (scheduled on the previous Friday), the second step was Tuesday (yesterday), and today I signed my job offer.
I'm not someone who has 10+ years of experience in my field ( it's closer to 3 ), I'm only 26, and all of my worries about being laid off were justified. IE no income or job security.
For others, it will take longer. For some, it may be quicker. The point is, don't give up. There is something out there for everyone. If you put forth the effort and try as hard as you can, the pieces will click into place.
Good Luck!
Thanks
I am retired looking for PT help.
I am in that same situation you were in a year ago. I have sent out dozens of resumes and filled out many applications. I have had one offer after two online skype interviews for a contract position. I accepted the role but continue to apply each day for a permanent position.
The more companies you contact the greater your chance at landing a job.

Thanks because this situation sounds similar to mines. But nothing has happened. I've done plenty of job sites also. Thanks for the encouraging words.

Thanks for the encouragement. God is good!!!
It's good advice not to give up. Sometimes it requires for one to walk the mile before he gets what he wants. Hold out for your heart's desire.
That’s sounds like some great advice and encouragement. Most people would have never been able to understand how people are trying to make their situation better by using some simple ideas like this for themselves to make their life easier.
