Careers never fully recover from extended unemployment. There is plenty of research on this from previous downturns.

- ceejayoz 6y agoThere hasn't been a "previous downturn" with this concentrated (size × time) an unemployment spike. It's weird to claim we know now how employers will react to it yet when they see "unemployed, May 2020" on a resume.
- greglindahl 6y agoDidn't recessions in the US, 100 years ago, used to be huge and always have V-shaped recoveries?
- ceejayoz 6y agoThe Department of Labor didn't collect unemployment numbers until the 1940s, but it's my understanding that the recent spike in filings is unique in size since they did.
