The job took your week's structure with it. Scrolling boards at 2am is not a plan, it just feels like one. PearUp gives the morning a shape again: three things, about forty minutes, and then the day is yours to spend on anything else.
What went is the structure. This puts one back.
Finish today's plan and you're back on pace this week; about 41 minutes, all prepared. Hiring is open now, into late November.
“So, why did you leave?”
You answer it out loud, ten minutes at a time, until it comes out as a fact you state rather than something you apologise for. Nobody hears the first fifteen attempts.
You are not starting over. Nothing in here treats a layoff as a hole in your record.
You got to the reason in eleven seconds. Then you talked past it for forty.
The hardest part of a search after a layoff is asking. This makes the ask an ordinary thing to do.
Import your connections once. PearUp works out who is a champion, who is an adviser, who actually decides, and who has gone quiet, then names who to write to about the job you are chasing today.

Why them, why now: you reported to him for two years, he moved to Northwind in March, and Northwind has the role you queued this morning · last touch 14 months ago
What the company is, what the role actually wants, and what they are likely to ask you. Yours to download and read on the train, not one more tab to keep open.
Fifty conversations, twenty-five applications and five practice runs a week is what a real search looks like. PearUp turns that into one day at a time and tells you where you stand. A bad week stays a week.
You are not starting over. You are coming back sharper.
“It perfectly prepared me for every interview and gave me confidence in knowing I had the right skills for the job.”
“PearUp's my one stop solution for standing out in the job hunt crowd. Its features and structured approach make it very easy to use. Total time-saver!”
“Pearup is a game changer — analyzing my CV, practicing interviews, and identifying skill gaps for continuous development. I highly recommend this product!”
Companies that handle a layoff properly buy transition support for the people leaving, and PearUp is what some of them buy. Ask whoever handled your exit whether it is in your package. If you would rather not ask them, tell us who they were and we will find out.
We will check whether they have set this up. If they have not, we will tell you what your options are.
If your former employer included transition support, it is already paid for and costs you nothing. If they did not, tell us and we will come back to you.
No. An individual account has no coach and no administrator on it, and nothing is ever sent on your behalf.
It is a question, not a verdict. You rehearse the answer here until it comes out as a fact you state.
As many as you want, at any hour. That is the point of practising somewhere that is not a real interview.
About forty minutes, and the plan tells you the number before you start.
Companies set PearUp up for whole groups. That side is over here.
