In the modern world, dismissal has become a fairly common thing for many companies. Naturally, this is a rather unpleasant situation for employees, but still it is not the end of the world. You just need to be prepared for this turn of events, and a few tips will help you reduce possible stress and other negative consequences.
Keep your finger on the pulse
Don't stop looking for new career opportunities. Even if you are completely satisfied with your current place of work. Conduct a so-called passive search and be ready to take active action if necessary.
Show your professional value
To increase the chances of promotion at your current job, do everything so that your boss realizes how useful your activity is, and how hard it will be without you.
Don't take everything to heart
Know that there is no such employee who cannot be fired. Even the best employee is not immune from this. Take care of your nerves and don't waste time worrying, it's time to move on to the backup option (see above).
Find out
What kind of severance package does your company provide? Perhaps you will be pleased with her generosity, and you will understand that there is no reason to panic.
Look at everything from the other side
Dismissal is, first of all, an opportunity to improve your career and find a really interesting and beloved job.
Good luck!
