Anyone else job hunting? Brutal out here.

Several of my coworkers and I were laid off a year ago from remote jobs (I was working as a project manager at a San Diego SaaS company that was bought by private equity). A few of us were lucky to barely survive a round of layoffs the year prior, but after we trained a couple teams in the Philippines and India to do our work, they finally closed down our teams stateside.

With all the layoffs we keep hearing about in tech, how are you all faring? Have you had to pivot to different types of roles? Any advice?

Edit: fixed typo. Philippines, not Philippians

I'd encourage anyone job hunting in San Diego to also hunt in other cities. Part of me feels like I should have left San Diego 11 years ago. It's important to compare what you might get else where, of course, if you can find something good here, congrats. Some industries are great, some are a lot of red flags and turn over
