I work and live in California at a large well known insurance group, and word has it I may get laid off. I will be able to collect unemployment but was thinking of moving to Las Vegas where its cheaper to live. I can cut my rent more than half and probably wont need to find a job right away if Im collecting unemployment and my husbands job will be an easy transfer

I was terminated from my job of 2 years, due to lack of performance. I am curious if i still qualify to apply for unemployment or not? I live in MD. PLease help!

I was recently laid off in Texas. I did not apply for unemployment benefits at first, but I am ready to now. However, I am doing a small coaching job that pays less than half the hourly wage I was making at my full time job. Can I still collect unemployment? Is it more profitable to quit the coaching job so that I can collect unemployment?

does that limit you to word of mouth and advertised positions where you can send out your resume?

What about cold calls? How do I make them as discreet as possible? Call during break time?

Any more tips? Thanks.

I’m a VP for a design/manufacturing firm now, but I’ve been looking for a new job, in management in general. Does this qualify as a deduction on my tax return, since I’m not specifically searching only in the manufacturing industry?

I was laid off from my full time job and qualified for unemployment. Now I just got a part time job, and it will more than likely lead into full time, and its for a wonderful company that Im sure will have allot of opportunities for me in the future.

In the state of California I was getting unemployment, I found a job (There for no more unemployment) been working for awhile and I’m still on probation for the job but I found that this job is REALLY REALLY not for me. Question: If I where to get fired or quit will I still be able to qualify for my unemployment back since I’m in the probation period?

Thanks for your time.

My employer is cutting my position. He has offered me another job with the company but with a significant pay cut which I cannot afford to live on. Is this an exception to collecting unemployment if I refuse the lower paying job? I may have to move home with family and go back to school to improve job opportunities.
