Problem is Linkedin is infested with scammers. They hear a big company has a big layoff, they target the newly unemployed, figuring they'd be desperate for work. If they say they want to hire ex-Oracle, be very suspicious.
Also, if you're cut and choose to put on the #OPENTOWORK badge, make sure you have the visibility set to "Recruiters only". Otherwise ever scammer on the platform will be crawling all over your a$$.
In other words, if you wanted out and got cut, good for you. Just be careful out there, it's. jungle.
