If you’ve been laid off, one of our top recommendations is to join an alumni community for your company:
By definition of a layoff, you were not the only one laid off from your company. Reach out to those who were also laid off and see if you can help each other. One of our friends made a signal group chat for all the engineers who were laid off from their company, it helped immensely for them as they interview prepped, sent referrals, etc.
In addition, try to find an alumni community for your company. Many tech companies have alumni Slack communities, with channels for job postings and navigating layoffs.
If they don't exist, you can start one! Here's an example of how Steven started one for Tableau Alumni once he found out Tableau/Salesforce had major layoffs, which reached over 500 members within 2 weeks.
Here’s a crowdsourced database of all the alumni communities of various tech companies. To submit an entry, use this form.
