That sucks. Almost 4 years ago I got hit by a layoff for the first time. When it happened I'd been in the industry 42 years. I spent 4 months on unemployment searching job sites and having mostly frustrating interactions with headhunters.

The thing I did which helped most was reaching out to my network as soon as it happened. I ended up with an offer and another company interested thanks to friends I'd worked with at previous jobs. If you've already notified friends, don't be shy about reminding them you're still out of work.
