To those of you laid off/fired

[tontod]

For those of you that have been laid off/fired recently, how long has it taken you to find and start a new job? For me, its been about a month, got my 1st interview next week.

i wasnt laid off per se, but I was looking for a new opportunity.

My interview process with one of the big 5 will have taken 2 months total from beginning to end, if not a bit more.

Last time I got fired, it took me two months to create employment.

well let's see... i've been out of work since march..... still out of work (kinda). just working as consultant. fun really! i think i'll never have a permanent job again. i enjoy my freedom way too much after 3 years working in a startup (and it wasn't a .com)

I spent a horid 6.5 months out of work. Your results may vary (and I hope they do, on the lower end of course).
