Returning to work after redundancy

When someone is made redundant from a job it can be very distressing and can really take a toll on the person’s self confidence. Most people are in a situation where they need to return to work as soon as possible, and the thought of having to go through the whole recruitment process again can be daunting.

The main thing is to get back on the saddle as quick as possible. Firstly you need to update your CV to include all your recent experiences and qualifications that you have acquired whilst in employment. Once you have this you can start to search the internet for potential vacancies that suit your skill set. Apply for as many jobs as you feel happy with and do not get dishearten if you do not get the job you have your heart set on, often the next job that comes along is actually better.
