对于经历了一年前所未有的裁员和市场动荡的科技工作者来说，至少还有一线希望。一项最新调查显示，大多数下岗工人至少已经开始东山再起。
ZipRecruiter提供给《华尔街日报》的调查数据显示，近80%(79%)曾被解雇的新入职科技员工表示，他们在开始找工作后三个月内就找到了新工作。ZipRecruiter的部分全国调查数据已于上个月公布。近四分之一的求职者表示，他们用了不到一个月的时间就找到了一份新工作。ZipRecruiter的数据显示，这种相对快速的再招聘在很大程度上反映了整体经济的再招聘情况。根据美国劳工统计局(U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics)的数据，美国失业持续时间中值徘徊在8.1周左右。没错，科技公司裁员很常见，但其他科技公司的裁员率更高。
在接受调查的下岗技术工人中，大多数人都在同一行业找到了新工作。具体来说，约74%的人在科技行业找到了工作，另有6%和5%的人在零售、电子商务和金融服务业找到了新工作。据报道，另有2%的人在医疗保健行业找到了工作。
ZipRecruiter首席经济学家Julia Pollak表示:“尽管科技行业出现了大规模裁员、冻结招聘和削减成本的现象，但许多科技员工很快就找到了再就业机会。他们仍然是最抢手的工人，拥有最受欢迎的技能。”
大规模裁员和工作冻结几乎触及了科技行业的每一个领域，从大手笔的传统科技巨头到备受打击的加密货币初创公司，以及介于两者之间的几乎所有领域。裁员的原因各不相同，一些公司认为利率上升，另一些公司承认高估了大流行时期转向在线商务和数字媒体的持久力。虽然2022年的裁员一开始主要影响的是小公司，但经济低迷最终影响到了微软和Meta等行业巨头，后者上个月裁员1.1万人。然后是推特(Twitter)，单从数字上看，它裁员人数不是最多的，但确实提供了一个如何不与员工分道扬镳的大师班。毕竟，当你不得不乞求被裁掉的工人回家时，这不是一个好迹象。
尽管如此，仍有一些理由保持谨慎。在最近几轮裁员中失去工作的技术人员似乎比之前被雇用的人更难找到工作。ZipRecruiter的数据显示，在2月份被解雇的技术人员中，有50%的人在找工作后的一个月内找到了新工作。在最近失业的工人中，这一数字下降到37%。

There’s at least one silver lining for tech workers who’ve faced a year of unprecedented layoffs and market instability. Most of the laid-off workers, according to new research, are at least landing on their feet.
Nearly eight in 10 (79%) of recently hired tech workers who were previously laid off say they found a new job within three months of beginning their job hunt, according to ZipRecruiter survey data shared with The Wall Street Journal. Parts of that ZipRecruiter’s national survey data were published last month. Nearly a quarter of those job seekers reported taking less than one month to find a new role. That relatively quick rehiring largely mirrors rehiring in the general economy according to ZipRecruiter, where the median unemployment duration hovers around 8.1 weeks according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Layoffs at tech companies are common, yes, but other tech companies are out-hiring them at higher rates.
For the most part, the laid-off tech workers surveyed found new jobs in the same industry. Specifically, around 74% of the workers found jobs in tech while another 6% and 5% found new jobs in retail or e-commerce and financial services. Another 2% reportedly found jobs in healthcare.
“Despite the widespread layoffs, hiring freezes, and cost-cutting taking place in tech, many tech workers are finding reemployment remarkably quickly,” ZipRecruiter Chief Economist Julia Pollak. “They’re still the most sought-after workers with the most in-demand skills.”
Massive layoffs and job freezes have touched just about every sector of the tech industry, from high-rolling legacy tech giants to whiplashed cryptocurrency startups and just about everything in between. The reasons for the layoffs vary, with some companies citing rising interest rates and others admitting to having overestimated the staying power of a pandemic-era pivot to online commerce and digital media. Though the 2022 job cuts started off mostly impacting smaller firms, the downturn eventually affected some of the industry’s biggest names like Microsoft and Meta, the latter of which shed 11,000 jobs last month. Then there’s Twitter which, by pure numbers, didn’t lay off the most workers, but did provide a masterclass on exactly how not to part ways with staff. It’s not a great sign, after all, when you have to beg axed workers to come back home.
All that said, there are still some reasons to remain cautious moving forward. Tech workers who lost their jobs in more recent rounds of layoffs appear to be having a slightly harder time finding work than those hired earlier on. 50% of rehiring tech workers who were laid off in February, according to ZipRecruiter, managed to find a new job within one month of their search. That figure dropped down to 37% for workers who lost their jobs recently.
