How to Manage Your Severance While Job Searching

Episode 11 of The Layoff Podcast tackles a practical challenge: how to structure your job search around your severance timeline. Lucas and Luna break down the median severance duration of 8 weeks, explain the risk of signing an offer before severance runs out, and walk through a specific strategy — the 'severance straddle' — for timing interviews and start dates. They also discuss how severance affects unemployment benefits, health insurance gaps via COBRA, and the mental shift from severance as a 'deadline' to a 'buffer.' No fluff. One actionable framework you can use if you're currently severanced and job hunting. #Severance #JobSearch #Layoff #CareerAdvice #SeveranceStrategy #UnemploymentBenefits #COBRA #HealthInsurance #JobHunting #InterviewTiming #SeveranceTimeline #CareerTransition #JobOffer #SeveranceStraddle #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Careers #LayoffPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
