One of the most significant considerations is whether you are a go-getter by nature or a more laid-back person. This is not a personality test to satisfy curiosity. It directly influences how fast and sustainably you can rebuild following redundancy.
Being laid back is frequently misconstrued. For many people, it simply means being calm under pressure, avoiding panic, and believing that everything will work out. These characteristics are crucial, especially after redundancy, when anxiety can lead to rash judgements such as accepting inadequate employment offers or leaping into unsuitable roles. However, being laid back can become a disadvantage if it results in waiting rather than acting.
A go getter, on the other hand, is not someone who is constantly busy or stressed. It is someone who takes initiative even when the path is unclear. After redundancy, go getters tend to update their CV within days, reach out to former colleagues, explore training options and apply consistently even when rejections arrive. They do not necessarily feel more confident than laid back individuals. They simply act despite uncertainty.
What matters most after redundancy is not which label fits you best, but whether your current approach matches the urgency of your situation. Redundancy is a transition, not a pause. Bills still arrive. Mortgage payments, rent, childcare and energy costs do not slow down simply because employment has stopped. A laid-back approach that relies on things eventually falling into place can quietly deepen financial stress.
This does not mean you need to become someone you are not. A calm personality can still be proactive. The shift is internal. It is about replacing waiting with intentional movement. Instead of waiting to feel motivated, you create small daily actions that build momentum. One application sent today. One recruiter contacted. One skill refreshed. These actions compound quickly.
There is also a psychological element. Redundancy can bruise self confidence. When that happens, being laid back becomes a protective mechanism. If you do not act, you cannot fail. The problem is that avoiding rejection also avoids progress. Go getter behaviour does not remove rejection, but it reframes it. Each rejection becomes data, not a verdict on your worth.
The most sustainable path forward blends calm with action. You give yourself space to process what happened, but you do not stay there. You create structure where your job once provided it. Wake times. Application times. Learning times. This structure is often the difference between someone who remains unemployed for months and someone who finds a new path within weeks.
