On today’s Career Corner Russ discusses steps you can take to overcome a downsizing or firing.
Many of us have struggled due to a bump in our career, whether it be down-sizing or getting fired.

For someone recently downsized, Russ says the emotions can be overwhelming, but they can be overcome. He has a great exercise on his website that can help you get back on track.
