I hold all three major Kubernetes certifications and I’ve still struggled before I found this position. I probably just need to apply harder than before. I think I’m going to start working on a solutions architect. Thank you for the kind words.
Thank you. One of the engineers said he would write me a recommendation on LinkedIn. I’ve already applied for unemployment. I’m thinking of pursuing a AWS Solutions Architect.
I accepted a position at a start up around three months ago. This company was located in New York and I was located in California. They mentioned that I could work remotely for now but I would eventually have to move out to New York. I was okay with this, as I always dreamed of working in New York.
They had me work as a contract worker for the first month to see if I was a good fit. Once that passed they hired me full time, and I worked remotely for around a month and a half, then moved out to NYC last week. However, just this Friday they told me that I was laid off, they said it had something to do on their end. This was totally out of the blue and I didn’t believe them at first. At the office the day before we were talking about how I would get a week off for Christmas.
I’m in a total panic right now. I’m in a city I don’t know without a job and I have about 5 weeks to find a new position or I have to move back in with my parents in California. I’m not even sure if I should include it on my resume, as having only worked three months at my first job might look bad.
The job market for tech is so rough right now I’m terrified. I'm really hoping for any advice on how to go about this, what should I do?

Hoping to get the ball rolling on this sub more. There’s too much action in the JavaScript scene for this community to only get a few post a month.
