Career change after a layoff, where to begin? - 7 weeks in

My layoff made me rethink whether to stay in my field. My family is supportive but nervous. How did you start?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 10 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

You likely have more transferable skills than you think. Write down what you did, not what the job title said.
