From Shock to Strategy: Rebecca’s Job Search Success

When Rebecca Higgins suddenly lost her job, she was caught off guard. Like so many professionals, she had built a strong career through hard work, leadership, and results. But unexpected layoffs don’t always reflect ability. They can shake even the most confident people.

“I was in shock,” Rebecca shared. “I’ve always been a high performer, but this layoff caused me to question my own abilities and I was in no place to start applying to jobs.”

Instead of letting discouragement take over, Rebecca leaned into her job search right away. From the beginning, she partnered with Applica.
