Episode 4—Malini COVID Stories

    • Society & Culture

Millions of people have filed for unemployment since the COVID crisis began, but for many this isn't the first time they lost their job. The past 20 years have seen numerous mass lay offs, from the 2001 tech bubble to the 2007 financial crisis, right up until the 2019 auto industry crisis. And for some people, when the COVID crisis first hit, they were already unemployed, and found themselves in a new job market seemingly overnight. Meet Malini, she lost her job in 2007, and again in 2019. And when COVID first hit, she was just coming back from a year travelling the world, ready to look for a new job.
