Unemployment
I just got laid off last Thursday and filed for unemployment on Saturday. They didn't tell me much on the phone, just said I'll be getting some packet in the mail shortly. I have never been on unemployment before so I'm wondering how this all works in NJ.
I'm not the type that wants to sit home all day and would much rather be working. If I get a part-time job while looking for a full-time job in my field will I still get unemployment checks? Do they make you call somewhere each week and let them know how many hours you're working? I want to at least try to get some temp or freelance work while I'm looking.
