Being Made Redundant

DieselJake · Sep 12, 2014

Just looking for any help/advice for my next steps.

I am (soon to be was) a programmer that has been working on a MVC C# asp.net website for the last 9 months, my performance is/was good and I've made everything happen that they wanted although the site didn't sell enough and almost all marketing staff were gone long before I knew I too was getting the chop.

If you have programming skills mate you will find a job. Id get the CV out to as many places as possible as soon as possible.

Sorry to hear this mate, but onwards and updwards, just make sure your CV is upto date and if you are one linkedin, makre sure you update your profile with relevant experience ASAP, also if its common knowledge, change your status on there to something like 'available for new roles from xxxx'

Linkedin is used by nearly all recruiters nowadays, so defo worth making use of it.

Hope it all works out for you.

Beat of luck with the job search - I'll second linkedin - absolutely crawling with recruitment people - make sure you update it every day even with tiny Changes as it will make you more likely to be found by other users when searching

Cheers guys, been working on my website at work (because I'm basically sitting around with nothing to do), I'll update Linkedin and sort my CV too, real problem is my friend has planned a holiday straight after I leave... seems a bad idea going away when I should be dedicated to looking for work although resistance is futile.

Fingers crossed you find something pretty soon, Jake. Redundancy is a lousy thing to happen, but sometimes it can give you an opportunity you weren't expecting.
