Your stories of unemployment 02:38am on 09 Jan 2009 Fortunately only been made redundant once in 30 years of working.

I knew it was coming and started looking around (applying for jobs and going through interview processes) about 6 months beforehand.

I suppose the key points from my experience were:
- contact everyone you have ever known in your career to date
- be positive
- be prepared to retrain
- be prepared to move anywhere.

I was offered a job in Australia, came here with young family 8 years ago and have never looked back.
