For those laid off by Indeed in March, today marks the two-month anniversary of Indeed being without you (and me.) The time has flown by in some ways, and in others, it has crawled past.
Hi RC. I'm stopping by to say I enjoy your posts and find much in them that resonates. I'm glad you're feeling better, I had the covid recently too.
I prefer to use several job search engines because I often get additional listings. Linkedin I find generally sends the large Corp listings, while Indeed is balanced with smaller companies and contract opps in the mix (organic only I assume). Otta seems better at zeroing in on my focus and sends the same results as others, but quicker. I have two or three searches runing on Indeed. I read a lot of listings because sometimes there's an interesting surprise. That's how I joined Indeed originally-an unusual opportunity that I took a chance on.
The fast company article resonated because I had become excellent at work I loved with a team I care about, and had a wonderful manager. I found purpose I my work and still feel aligned with Indeed’s mission. My search is about finding that employment partner again, even if it takes a while.

Thanks for the encouragement Mark, and hope you're feeling better.
I completely agree with you about looking for the right mission, team, and manager. It's a hard spot, but I'm still hopeful.
