Too many people limit themselves when job hunting. If you broaden your search to other industries, you’ll see the job market is not nearly as bad as many believe.

I don't believe OP is Mike Rowe.
Intel high tech is equivalent to working in a food processing plant. Yup, I am qualified! Thanks OP!
Tell me you don't work in a core Foundry group without telling me you don't work in a core Foundry group.
Hmm, the 1.2 million unemployed techies would disagree.
I expect that if you use AI to cope with your job loss then it will tell you something similar.
This is honestly best post on here in a long while. The semiconductor industry will not hire former Intel employees. Intels brand name is in the trash within this world. Why would they want to hire people who failed and destroyed a once prestigious company? So their projects can fail too?
But outside of semiconductors they are unaware. Our best bet is to go into other area and fields. So very much agree with OPs statements.
Front end chip design skills are very industry specific and can't be easily transferred IMO
Completely agree. If you’re willing to change fields…managing a microchip factory isn’t much different from any other factory. And outside industries are impressed with Intel experience.
