Just Got Laid Off? Best Way To Find A New Job
I just got laid off from my job and I am very sad. What is the best and fastest way to get another one in this economy? Would the newspaper, employment agencies, or the internet be the best avenue to take? Also, how do you find and apply with some of the online job searches? Thank you very much! I need help because I have never been laid off before and I don’t know how to go about it!

Temp agencys are a bad idea and they pay lousy vs direct hire. I have to move to find work in my field but rent is cheaper and the climate is a lot warmer in W Texas. but worrying bout tornandoes beats worrying about a job
Anyway don’t get discouraged, because competition is fierce
when you apply 99 others might want the same job
Look into relocating to where your skills are in demand and hopefully cost of living is cheaper
i was paying 900 a month to rent now moving to where i pay 400
and jobs are plentiful in my field best move i can make.
Until this economy picks up there is no real best way but look in all the places that you can think of, networking, online etc. Take advantage of the time to try to increase your skills, and education. It is a hard thing to go through especially the first time, so take at least a week or two to unwind and come to grips with it and really, really sit down and go over your resume thinking of all your strong points, all your experience and how it can transcend into other careers. When reading want adds either in the paper or online if you have 1/2 of what they are looking for apply then apply even online you can make cover letters structure it to fit each and every job. always positive.
Check all sources you can, anywhere you can think of, to find a vacancy. And be willing to try something different, as you might not immediately be able to find a job in your chosen field straight away. It’s always terrible to lose a job, but as trite as it sounds, you need to stay positive and believe in yourself. Good luck!
