Layoffs across my industry, where did you pivot? - 6 weeks in

Many of the people I know in my field were laid off this year, including me as a data-entry clerk. Any experience at all would help. I have transferable skills but no direct experience elsewhere.

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

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