Unemployment BlessingsCommunity InvolvementFor Lisa Perez, the wakeup call was burned pork chops. An executive who previously hadnt been particularly interested in home and health had become obsessed with homemaking during a stint of unemployment. Ms. Perez, 35, resolved to become an active volunteer for the duration of her search. She gave her time to a health-care concern, a housing program and a political campaign.The work bolstered her self-confidence. Volunteering takes the focus off of you. One thing you have thats still valuable is your time. And, of course, you learn that there are thousands of people with a life thats much worse than yours, she says.Volunteer assignments are also great ways to meet powerful and well-connected people. Over a six-month period, her volunteering evolved into working as a paid consultant and then as a full-time employee, a job she still holds today. In all, she was unemployed for eight months. Continuing EducationEven as the economy improves, a jobless executive may face up to a year or more of unemployment. This is a lot of time, especially for hard-charging high-performers who are not used to having any free time. When laid off from the position of executive in a steel company near Cleveland, Mr. Bellavance, single and virtually debt free, shifted his finances into survival mode. He cashed out his pension, sold his house, unloaded things he didnt need at garage sales, and rented an apartment with a roommate. Then, he says, I signed up for every benefit I could find. But he wasnt just waiting out the year. He spent the rest of his search updating his skills, including becoming certified in new database, project-management software and other related areas.People should not feel guilty about accepting government aid, he says, I saw this in a lot of people. They felt they were some kind of loser for taking benefits. My advice is: Get all you can. Youve been paying for these programs in your entire career, and you may as well start to benefit from them.Family MattersIn addition to pursuing training or volunteering, some displaced careerists use their time off work to attend to family matters. Many executives rediscover their children or find time to help their parents. Stanford Rappaport held three jobs in San Francisco, including high-tech and teaching positions. When he was laid off from the high-tech job last year, he knew it might be a long slog before he could get another post like it in the Bay Area.Mr. Rappaports remaining job, a part-time faculty position with City College of San Francisco, didnt pay enough to support him. After a couple of months of searching with no results, he decided to escape the Northern California jobs meltdown. My plan, he says, was to get out of an expensive living situation, and either seek work in another section of the U.S. or overseas, for those two years. Mr. Rappaport, who speaks five languages, had worked overseas before.Before he found an assignment, his Arkansas-based mother was diagnosed with a serious chronic illness, and he was called into duty as a son. Mr. Rappaport was able to help his mother get her affairs in order not to interrupt his search by using a San Francisco mail drop and cell phone. I continued to look for work in California while I was in Fayetteville, Ark., helping my mother through this crisis.Mr. Rappaports stay in Arkansas lasted six months. Its amazing that at this stage I had the opportunity to spend a significant amount of time with my mother and improve her life and get a lot of things done for her. Most people never have that opportunity. Im very thankful that I had the chance. It was absolutely worth it, he says.One of the unexpected benefits was the huge boost in confidence he gained from his role as caregiver. Hed been feeling depressed and defeated when he left California, but after returning, he felt renewed. He landed a job with a former employer after returning to San Francisco and remains a part-time faculty member. Discovery and ExplorationInstead of spending time off lamenting your unemployed status, ask yourself: Is there something Ive always wanted to do but havent because of the demands of my job? Michael Ross, 42, a former IT administrator in El Cerrito, Calif., recently spent his months of unemployment playing guitar and exploring his lifelong interest in scriptwriting and the movie business. After years at my former employer and how hard I had worked, I knew I had to recover, to get restored, he says, I looked at this as an opportunity, rather than a penalty. This was very much about clearing space for me.At the executive level, even a very efficient and successful job search may be quite lengthy. It makes sense to spend that time in an enriching and productive manner. These job seekers pursued service, continuing education and shoring up family bonds.
