Omna Search: Spooky Season Is Over... 👻
or is it? o_O
Howdy Omna folks!
I hope you all had a festive and safe Halloweekend - I know I sure did. I recently moved to LA and man, the costumes in Hollywood were on another level! I saw everything from realistic zombies and fully-armored knights, to a guy dressed as Rick Astley who real-life Rickrolled me: (Me: “Who are you supposed to be?” / Him: “I’m never.” / Me: “Huh?” / Him: “I’m never gonna give you up 🎵”). Your favorite recruiting team had a little celebration of our own during our Monday morning meeting, complete with costumes and horror movie trivia led by Captain Aaron.
Although Halloween is over now, there’s still been some spooky stuff happening in the tech world recently: a survey conducted by KPMG revealed that 90% of CEOs in the US are expecting a recession soon, and the hiring freezes and layoffs being announced by some of the biggest players in the game might be a glimpse of what’s to come:
At the end of September, Meta announced a hiring freeze and a plan to downsize for the first time ever
This week, Amazon decided to pause hiring for their corporate workforce, on top of the corporate retail hiring freeze that was announced by the company last month
Apple followed suit, tapping the breaks on hiring for any roles outside of their research and development (R&D) team
Twitter is never one to be left out of the drama, as the company’s new head honcho, Elon Musk, plans to eliminate around 3,700 jobs (50% layoff) over the next week
Significant layoffs were also announced this week by Lyft (13% layoff) and Stripe (14%)
Nonetheless, there’s always some exciting and innovative things happening in the startup / tech world, and Omna is here to help you get connected to your next opportunity! Our job board currently has about 30 active job postings across different industries, roles, locations, and stages for you to explore.
