The pandemic has forced companies to make significant budget cuts, which has resulted in numerous layoffs; some have even closed their doors permanently. However, the pandemic has also initiated a significant shift in how we do business. Remote-first or remote-only culture has become common as organizations saw the benefits of a global talent pool. Similarly, job seekers have more options since they can now apply for roles at companies around the world. Still, layoffs are hard, and we all approach them differently. In this episode of The Anonymous Marketer, we chat with Brianna Doe, the director of Demand Generation at Aion, about how you can recover after a layoff and start looking for a new job.
