@yp Yup, i can understand. I too was let go in 2024, but I got a job back at intel in late spring (did it to get out of unemployment) and boy it is a sh-t show. Decided to continue applying for jobs and interviewing while continue to work at Intel. I finally got an offer early December and left the next week.
It took me about 10+ months, i took 2 months off after i got back into Intel but restarted again. Definitely ramp up in the beginning of New Year, thats when the fresh jobs will get posted.
