You have three core career choices that you can make during a recession: You can make yourself indispensable at work, actively search for a new job or do nothing and hope for the best.

The first thing you need to do is come into the office five days a week. By being present, you’ll benefit from theSeeing you around the building being busy evokes the belief that you are essential. Compared to everyone else who is mostly seen when they’re in Zoom video calls with dozens of others, it makes you stand out in the crowd.
Make it a daily practice to seek out senior-level executives and people who wield power. Cozy up to them. Start with small talk in the hallways, before and after meetings. Once they get to know you, offer your assistance. Inquire about how you can help them. They may provide you with a project, or maybe just the act of offering your help will resonate with them. They’ll formulate a favorable opinion of you as a motivated, helpful and resourceful person.
You also want to come across as positive, motivated and enthusiastic. Act as if everything is fine. Don’t be like everyone else who is bemoaning their fate, fault finding, complaining about their bosses, management and the dumb decisions that brought the company into this mess. Your contrarian demeanor will separate you from the herd and earn everyone’s respect.After trying to make yourself irreplaceable, you may feel that there is no hope.
