DPMs in Transition: Laid Off or Looking for Work

Friday, November 1st

The recording of this event is not available for rewatch.

Are you a digital project manager in transition?

Whether you’ve been recently laid off, are low on work, or are navigating unemployment, join a cohort of DPMs who understand the challenges of being in-between roles. Together, we’ll share resources, build connections, and support each other in staying sharp and ready for new opportunities. Let’s turn this downtime into a time for growth, collaboration, and community.

Here’s what to expect from the live call:

  1. Introductions: Share as much or as little as you would like about your layoff story
  2. Challenges: What’s been the toughest part of this? What are you finding most frustrating about the job market?
  3. Pay: I know, touchy subject and therefore optional, but also important. So let’s talk about it.
  4. Resources: Let’s share job boards, networking groups, or tools that have been helpful
  5. Staying Sharp: Courses, certifications, volunteer work, any skills you’re working on?
  6. What’s your “bug out plan”?: Do you have any ideas/fantasies for career pivots or changes you think about? Share them!
