As a last resort, if sadly you do find yourself in financial hardship for a while, don't forget IET Connect https://www.ietconnect.org/ But equally, many of us have found that redundancy is actually the first step to a new and much more satisfying career.
I seem to recall a statistic that 3 times is the average across a person's working life.

In fact, as daft as this might sound, the first twenty years of my graduate working life are just down as "Early Career Summary" with firm, dates, job title. That's it, no detail!
Absolutely, much the same for me:1978 (when I started my undergraduate apprenticeship) to 1999 are very brief indeed, and 1999-2005 only has slightly more because that's when my career started turning in the direction it ended up. There wants to be enough there to show a logical story, but it's really the last (say) five years that are the most interesting for showing what value you can add today.
