A dismissed employee, especially in cases where, in his opinion, the dismissal was unfair, may harbor a grudge against his superiors, and at the same time, against his colleagues.
If you find yourself in a similar situation and decide to break off all contact with your former colleagues, think twice before taking such a desperate step.
The thing is, this kind of behavior is unlikely to help you find a new job.
In one study, researchers found that laid-off executives were twice as likely to find new jobs through professional contacts.
Accordingly, those of them who used the services of recruiters or turned to relatives or friends for help received a new position twice as slowly.
The reason is that your bosses, colleagues and clients are aware of your abilities.
It costs them nothing to suggest you a good vacancy in the field you are interested in.
The conclusion is simple: even if you feel a deep sense of resentment about your dismissal, do not rush to share it with others.
Who knows, maybe if you don't say out loud everything you're thinking, these people will help you find your new dream job.
