Not laid off but I did just finish my PhD in computational biophysics and the three companies I was interviewing at paused/stopped interviews. I was frugal during my PhD but I decided it was best to move back in with my parents in San Jose (I was crashing on a buddy's couch in Champaign). My sisters lost their service sector jobs two-weeks ago.
I've been applying non-stop so if anyone has any refs for data science positions that would be quite helpful; it's a weird time transitioning from Academia to industry.
Here's my linkedin:

That said, my heart goes out to those that are in a tough situation.
- minkzilla 7y agoI’m graduating undergrad right now and I’ve been applying for jobs for months with not much success. Astonishingly, I’ve started getting more responses in the past couple of weeks. I’ve definitely gotten some companies saying they are freezing hiring and I’m worried as time goes on all of them will do this. Thankfully I have home and will be fine; it is frustrating however.
- xutopia 7y agoI sent you a request via LinkedIn. My company is looking for data scientists.
