Just lost my Data Science job due to company downsizing. What can I do to get a (preferably remote) job soon? /u/reddiperson1 CSCQ protests reddit

Once I got the notice, I updated my resume and LinkedIn. I live in the US and have a Master’s in CS with 6 years of experience. But, like many here, I’m worried about the job market. I’ve seen plenty of posts on this sub about data scientists more qualified than me who’ve sent out thousands of resumes without any offers or interviews.

My current strategy is this:

  • Bookmark job sites like LinkedIn, Indeed, and Ziprecruiter.
  • Filter the job sites for Data Scientist/ Data analyst/ SWE positions posted in the past week.
  • Apply to every position that makes sense.
  • Message each company on LinkedIn with a brief introduction after applying.

I’ve also been advised to seek out recruiters from places like Robert Half, though others claimed recruiters are either scams or dead-ends.
Some people have told me that finding remote work is easier than ever, while others said that the reality is my only hope is to apply to in-office jobs at a nearby city.

I’d be very grateful if anyone had some actionable advice about finding a new job!
