Des Moines Layoff & Job Market Interviewees for Business Record

Help please! I'm working on a story on the recent downsizing in the Des Moines-area financial and insurance sectors and am looking to interview someone who has been affected by a layoff in the past couple of years. I’d like to talk about how the job market looks now and whether you see this as part of a broader industry shift. I’m also hoping to connect with a recent business graduate or MBA who is having difficulty finding a job in the current market. If you’re willing to share your experience (on the record), please private message me or email me at [email redacted]. Friends, I'd appreciate you sharing this post as well. Thank you!
