Job search resources + 30 new roles

👋🏼 Howdy to all and welcome to new subscribers from California, D.C., New York, Maryland, Texas and beyond. If you have a chance, click reply and say hello. Let me know how you found Future Community and how we can be most helpful.

If you're looking for a job you know all too well you're not alone. On Friday, a friend posted a list of job search links on his LinkedIn. By this morning it had over 1,200 likes and nearly 450 reposts. Also this morning, he posted that he was laid off on Friday.

The job market is a mess, it won't get better soon and, no, you're not alone. So here are several resources for seekers. These are included at the end of the Future Community Jobs page, too. This list is wildly incomplete, of course. Click reply if you've seen something to add to this list. Thank you!

• A friend recommended Never Search Alone, a book by Phyl Terry. Best part might be the hundreds of job search councils, local and sector support groups, supported by the book.
