[quote=Anonymous]Spouse was laid off a few months ago and has struggled to find another job despite working hard to beef up skills, practice interviewing techniques and applying to any and all reasonable/semi-reasonable job fits. I know this could describe a lot of people out there right now but I just feel terrible for him. He's made it to a couple of last round selections but the rejections calls just keep coming, they keep choosing the other candidate. We're ok-ish for right now but the blow to his ego has been brutal. He went from what felt like a stable, well paying career to...this. We're both stressed and starting to lose hope. I'm holding down the fort with my job and benefits and he's stepped up with the kid stuff at home but I'm worried about what the future both financially and from a mental health stand point is going to look like. Anyone have any hopeful anecdotes? Words of wisdom? Commiseration? [/quote]
