How to Prepare For a Potential Job Loss
What do you do when you have that gut feeling of impending doom
about your job? Is the writing on the wall? Are you about to be
laid off or fired? Is the company going under? Or is it going to
come out of the blue that you no longer have a job. If you have
these feeling then now is the time to take action in order to
soften the blow. You need to start today to get your affairs in
order. If the ax falls you will be in a much better position
than your coworkers. If you follow these steps and nothing
happens you will still be much better off than you are now.
First off, is your resume up to date? If you have not updated it
in a few years, now is the time. You may want to consider hiring
a professional to do it for you. You need to put your best foot
forward. You want to be able to start sending it out before or
right after you become unemployed. Searching for a new job can
be a full time job by itself. Do you job skills need updating?
While you are still working may be a good time to take a few
classes and update your skills or start training for a new
career. You may want to sign up with a temp agency now so they
can place you later. Advantages of temp agencies are they pay
well, they find a job for you, you won't be competing for a
position with dozens of others and you can usually start
immediately.
Start networking. Ask everyone you know if they know of any job
openings. If you have not lost
your job yet, explain to them you
may be laid off and will be looking for a new job. Maybe they
can give you a contact name within their company. Someone to
send your resume to letting them know if they have any openings
in the future you would like to be considered. Start the process
now. It is not what you know, it is who you know.
Get your financial house in order. This is always easier said
than done. If you are like most people you may already be living
paycheck to paycheck and there is nothing extra. If you become
unemployed you need as much cash as possible to carry you
through. Most experts recommend 3-6 months cash to meet your
living needs. What if you can't find a job for 8 months or a
year? Gather all your cash reserve or sources for cash. Stash as
much as possible to meet you needs.
If you are laid off, the next day you should start filling out
any paperwork for unemployment benefits you may qualify for.
You will get through this, it will just take time. Start taking
these important steps today and you will be far better prepared
for tomorrow.
