What If You ARE Laid Off During A Recession?

Unemployment could hit 9% this year - and what if that 9% includes you? Robert Scoble who has a great blog - Scobleizer - has some great tips for those facing layoffs during a recession. Here are some of the points that I felt were most relevant:

1. Don't Get Lazy
2. Make sure you spend at least 30% of every day trying to find a job.
3. Start a blog on the field you want to work in.
4. Do things that will get you to be recognized as a world leader in the field you want to be in.
5. Show your friends your resume and cover letter.
