Our Story & Mission

LinkedOut Community began with three friends in Hamilton, Ontario, who had each experienced layoffs and the isolation of job searching.

Why LinkedOut exists

People navigating job loss need honest support, practical help, and a place to speak without performing success. LinkedOut is a free, independent, community-powered space for that work.

Our mission

To help people facing layoffs, career transitions, and job-search challenges find honesty, support, practical resources, and each other.
