Each point is a seven-day rolling window of complete UTC days; a point is comparable only when at least 100 analyzed posts or comments fall inside it. A day with no analyzed records counts as zero; missing coverage is marked and never shown as zero. The series ends at the latest complete analyzed day — it never extends into the current incomplete day. How attention is measured.

After only one quarter of losses, it’s unlikely cuts will come to your entire team all at once. If cuts happen, they’re more likely to come in waves with the newest team members or least qualified cut first. During this time, prioritize being visible. Be in the office as often as possible. Don’t be late. Don’t take a lot of time off. Submit your timesheet on time. Don’t gossip. Make the rounds through the office to the decision makers’ offices; just pop your head in and say hi. Be sure to smile, be pleasant, make them laugh if you can, and dress professionally. You want to make it difficult for them to decide to lay you off. You already know that the for-profit 3-4 day certs that organizations like ATD offer are not anywhere near the equivalent value of a degree in the same field. Work experience is valuable, but there are lots of people who can use tools like Camtasia and Articulate to create poor quality learning products. Just because you’re generating output doesn’t mean it’s high quality or gets results. Without the learning theory to guide and underpin the design choices, it’s easy to get it wrong, or make choices based on aesthetics alone. That doesn’t mean your work necessarily has those pitfalls, but in a competitive job market, an employer will usually choose the candidate with a degree over one without, as a way of mitigating those risks. However, that doesn’t mean you’re screwed. You already got yourself a job in this field without a degree. If you’re laid off, you can do it again. Start looking for opportunities as an “insurance plan” against the possibility of lay off. Look for job postings that accept work experience in lieu of a degree. Collect all the stats from the LMS on the impact of your work: number of sessions you’ve facilitated, increase in work productivity or efficiency of your learners in their jobs, etc. and add those to your resume. Update your LinkedIn profile. Have a portfolio of your work ready to showcase during interviews. Reinforce your professional network; reach out to people you haven’t connected with in a while and follow companies you might be interested in working for. Good luck to you.

The thing is I don't see enough jobs in LinkedIn or indeed. What worked for you? How did you search for the jobs?

True. I am currently working as an independent contractor for a Canadian agency but it's short term and they are not hiring as employee. I think there is still some demand for it given how many freelance projects I get, I am just not sure if companies actually post jobs opening in LinkedIn or Indeed.
