[quote=Anonymous]It's ok to feel sad about it. Especially with 6 months of severance, take a week or so to do things that bring you joy and don't think about job hunting yet. Then do some networking--when you get laid off for reasons other than performance, people in the field tend to be really nice and want to help you find something else (I speak from personal experience). Know that fewer jobs are likely to be posted in August so don't freak out if you don't see a lot. Work really hard on your resume and cover letter (customize for each job, and don't let AI write them!). Know that you will likely have to apply for lots of things but that the next chaper of your life can be a good one even if you weren't ready for the previous one to end. [/quote]
