Industry layoffs, what are people doing? - first time posting

Three companies in Spokane cut staff in the same month. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. The postings I see are fewer and ask for more. Which areas are hiring?

Look at job postings to see which skills repeat, then fill the gap. That gave me a direction.

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