Layoffs across my industry, where did you pivot? - first time posting

Many of the people I know in my field were laid off this year, including me as a logistics coordinator. This is my first time dealing with any of this. The postings I see are fewer and ask for more. How did you choose?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

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