What People are Saying:
"I was desperate for a job and had been out of work for 2 years. Boy was I doing it wrong! Within 3 weeks of following Laura's advice for White Collar Professionals I had an offer!"
Jenna, White Plains, NY
"This book gets to the nuts and bolts and doesn't waste time on the fluff. Within 20 minutes of reading, I had already shaved $500 off my monthly expenses. Within six days of using her inside information to landing an interview, I had one. Two weeks later I landed a new job at $30.00 an hour in Portland where the unemployment rate is 8.5%! "Laid Off Now What" helped me get control of my emotions and focus on what I needed to do. It takes the fear out of unemployment and gives you the tasks you need to get back in the game and stop feeling sorry for yourself!"
