economy. You should also read about creating stability for your job
here.
Identify the warning signs
It is very important that you identify the early warning signs
that your job security may be at risk. Some of these warning signs
include department budgets being slashed, employees are being let go
but not replaced and/or a hiring freeze is developed.
Utilize public info
If you work for a public company, it is important that you take
advantage of any sort of publicized information. You can get a
strong understanding of your company’s financial foundation by going
over quarterly reports and by listening to earnings calls.
Be indispensible
Making yourself indispensible will ensure that you keep your job
during these hard economic times. For example, always strive for
excellent performance evaluations, attempt to bring business into
your company, share contacts that you feel will help in growing the
business and also look for ways that will help save the company
money.
More info...
If your colleagues are being let go, do not hesitate to address
your job security with your manager. It is important that you are
direct, but not confrontational.
Even if you are told that your job is safe, reconnect with your
network. Waiting until you are out of job to connect is not a good
idea. Also, make yourself aware of potential opportunities and reach
out to recruiters, former colleagues and managers. You should also
always keep your resume updated and think of news ways that you can
creatively present yourself via your resume.
