It took about 2 months to get a new job. Mainly because I got the axe in December, and there is not a whole lot of hiring going on until January, and I had to spend 2 weeks in China to adopt my daughter. Oh, did I mention that I was in a layoff round of one and it was a couple of weeks after I mentioned to the CIO that I was adopting. They also refused to pony up the adoption benefit in the severence package, so they saved a couple of thousand dollars there and blew hundreds of thousands to replace me, but that is on a separate budget. I am at a better company now, but it raised a lot of havoc with the adoption.
