After 30 years working in the medical devices sector as director of a company making heart valves, Richard Stevens found himself made redundant in the summer of 2019, part of a cull which left him dejected but determined to get back in employment. By Christmas he had still not secured a role and had a huge number of knockbacks without even an interview, each application judged solely on his CV and with no human interaction whatsoever. The redundancy pay-out was not going to last forever, and he started having to be very careful with money, the family becoming increasingly concerned and upset.
