I start a new grad job in 3 weeks. The company went public 2 years ago, their stock exploded, but has since cratered. They recently announced a hiring freeze on most non-critical roles.<p>I’m scared. Should I start interviewing again? I haven’t interviewed/done Leetcode in 6+ months.<p>Are new grads easy targets for layoffs?
I would say yes. However, I would say be flexible if you need to get a job outside of tech to survive do it and volunteer or try to get side gigs if you can.<p>I worked as a janitor for a year when everything was crap.
