Starting a business is altogether a different proposition. It takes years of planning and execution to set one right. Though, there are instances where you have no where to go and hence end up starting a business either with your jobless friends or all alone. But to be on the safer side, its better to try harder looking for some job even if it means coming down on the salary and then plan ahead to establish a business of your own.

Dear Mano, you better look for another job. The so called bond would not be aplicable in current scenarios provided you have all the proofs of what you said here. No one can stop you to change your job. Besides, in India there is nothing like bonging labor, you have all the liberty to change your job provided it doesn't affect company adversely. and If does, so no one can deny the fact that you performance is up to the mark and are eligible for all the promised perks, etc.

Well, I think this question doesn't make any sense. You're skilled in field where you were working and now you lost your job because recession had a great impact on that particular market. So, starting another business withing same domain during recession doesn't make any sense. isn't it? Though, if one really wants to start a business he/she will have to wait for the favorable time, meanwhile you better look for an another job or sit idle if you can afford it

For those who used "godfather" to enter into the position, apparently losing his job due to his inefficiency, he would get tougher to find another job immediately, as he would have to seek another "godfather" to gain entry! For others, the best thing would be to find a suitable job immediately, without wasting time any further!

If you are efficient in your job, getting a new one should not matter much. For this to happen early, maintain a good relationship in the market & with all your employers - current & previous. And to start a business when you are jobless - is not the correct time. Start a business when you are comfortable in your job. Because your job not only supports you financially, it also generates contacts spontaneously, which is an important factor to establish a new business.

Under the prevailing situation hunt for a suitable that matches your skill and stick on to the same. job portals are open with plenty of job vacancies but it is not advisable to switch over frequently. . love the job you have chosen for yourself work with dedication get familiar with thetrade make friends and acquire the talent nec essary to redefine your skills and remain powerful and improve your qualification besides doing your work . nowadays it is very difficult as competion is quite high as another substitute is waiting to grab the oppurtunity to scale up his chances at any remote location. keep alert and work with confidence and keep communicating with oters to strengthen yourself or atleast learn how to administer jobs to others and avail the credit for you,

In such a situation, one should hone his/her skills along with the Resume and apply for another employment. There is one more reason for this; Since the person was terminateed due to recession (lack of business), it'll not be advisable to start own venture as it would be very difficult to get business. So you'll be dooming yourself into a deeper trench. Hope for the best and apply for a job is the best strategy in such a case. Another opportunity is that you can proceed on a sabattical and do some real good work to improve your academics/ get a degree or diploma so that you are engaged till the recession is over and you are better equipped when the economy is recovering.

Some employers are facing temporary difficulty in the current economic environment and may be looking at either reducing the overall size of their work force, or the number of paid hours their staff work. The Job Support Scheme will go some way to reducing the number of employees who may lose their jobs through redundancy.The Job Support Scheme is one of the Government’s initiatives in response to the current economic situation. Work and Income has an important role to play by supporting employers and helping employees keep their jobs.

An innovative man will never be upset even if he loses his job. Market is big, talent is ample, then why to worry, everything right will happen if we think out of the box. It depends from person to person whether to seek another job or start his own business or become a consultant or anything. But make sure that you are doing something which is of your best competency.

It depends upon your nature of work. I am a graphic and web designer. As far as my work is concerned, instead of starting business with huge investment, I can also do freelancing for many companies and start a small scale business with minimum investment as well. So in this case, risk level is really low. But people belong to industries like electrical, electronic, mechanical and IT, cannot start their business without proper machineries and manpower and that requires reasonable amount of investment. Here risk level is really high. But people who have self-confident on their profession and skills always achieve their goal even luck is apart.
