Layoffs across my industry, where did you pivot? (update)

Many of the people I know in my field were laid off this year, including me as a quality inspector. I have transferable skills but no direct experience elsewhere. Who has switched fields?

I moved into operations work. The skills carried over and there were more openings than in my old field.

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