Industry layoffs, what are people doing? after 5 years as an accounts payable clerk

Our sector has been shrinking and I am unsure if I should wait it out. I am open to a pay cut if the field is stable. Who has switched fields?

Talk to people in the field you are considering. Two coffee chats changed my mind about one option.

A short certificate helped me more than a new degree would have. Check what local colleges offer.
