I was let go as a software tester this week and I am still in shock. I have a few weeks of savings and a rent payment due. What did you do in the first week?

I made a short list: benefits, bills, documents, and then my résumé. One thing each day kept me steady.

File for unemployment right away. Do not wait for severance decisions. The date you file can matter.
