COVID-19 has impacted careers in so many ways and could change the future of working forever, but what can we learn from similar economic crises of the past?  Jon, Ian, and Mital share their stories from the Great Recession and draw parallels (and contrasts) with the pandemic.  COVID-19 has also created a lot of uncertainty in our lives and careers, so we dive deep into this topic in our first Career Fear segment.  Come join the Crowd!
