Although unemployment is low these days, there are many that are warning that we are headed into a recession, and that not only will the hot job market cool, but that layoffs may be headed our way.
In addition, many companies that have made offers have since withdrawn them, often with people who accepted those offers having given notice at their previous job. That’s why in this episode of the podcast, I wanted to talk about what you should do if you should lose your job, or how to prepare for it if you think it will be happening in the near future.
In this episode you will learn about:
- How to negotiate your exit
