Lonnie

Last week, I experienced an unfortunate first in my career when I learned I was included in a round of layoffs 😢

It’s been an emotional rollercoaster, but I'm really grateful that I got to work with some incredible people, and had an opportunity to grow so much as an engineer during my first year out of college.

I'm planning on taking a few weeks to recharge before I start looking for something, but I figured I'd share what I'll be looking for, on the off chance someone is currently hiring for a perfect match:

What I'm looking for:

Work as a Mobile Application Software Engineer (I have experience working on apps for both iOS and Android). I also have a preference for roles that are remote or in the Chicagoland area (*but* I’m also open to other locations as well if the role seems like a good fit)

@lonnie Man, that sucks. I’m glad you are taking what you’ve learned and moving ahead.

@marinaepelman Yeah, I think being fortunate enough to get closure from my manager that it wasn’t performance based made a huge difference. It just sucks that its likely to be the first of many during my career, given current industry trends :(

@lonnie ugh, sorry to hear that. First time always sucks.
