So you're laid off? Now what?
Feb. 1st, 2009 08:13 pmI've tried to write two posts providing job-hunting advice and deleted both, because they sounded incredibly not sure what the word is - smug? bossy? pretentious? This may fall into those categories as well.
Also when I was hunting for work, the thing I started to hate the most was unasked for job-hunting advice. I felt overwhelmed by it. If one more person told me what to do with my resume or how to interview or how to write a cover letter, etc - I was going to kick them. The best advice I got was from someone equally annoyed by the process, the_red_shoes - who sent me to a site that does a rather decent job of explaining how to write a successful resume and cover letter.

I can tell you a few things I learned from my own grueling experiences in the trenches.
