No employer cares about what the company was that you used to work at, they only care what skills/experience/accomplishments you have made there. Don’t be embarrassed. Just get the resume spiffed up. Unless the perfect opportunity arises, I would see if you could wait it out and take a severance/unemployment so you can put 100% of your focus into your job search rather than dealing with your day job and job hunt simultaneously.

>they only care what skills/experience/accomplishments you have made there they only care what skills/experience/accomplishments you can bring to the table compared to other applicants. Edit. I should add, that during times like this, interviews should be seen as intelligence gathering exercises. I've seen companies employee people just to pump them for contacts and knowledge of procedures or processes before laying them off within the trial period with no real intention of employing them. So the smart employee will drip this sort of info after the trial period, they dont hand all their previous knowledge over on day 1. And this can happen to anyone at any level because everyone gets exposed to confidential knowledge which is advantageous , especially if working in the same business sectors. Likewise some companies will have major problems they cant solve or holding back the company, so getting in staff from rival businesses is an opportunity to solve what existing staff cant, which can increase the capital or leverage of new staff. These situations are highly fluid times, always have a contingency because some events will be out of some peoples control.
