I was laid off in October. About a week ago, I decided to post something on LinkedIn about what helped me in processing my layoff. While it was scary at first to make something like that so public, I had a lot of support from past coworkers who commented and sent me DMs with opportunities at their respective companies. Social media can be a great networking tool. The post got 20k impressions, which led to more visibility of my profile, and more recruiters reaching out. Good luck!
Look for tech related meetups
Look for local meetups and social meetups are good too. I have met people in similar roles in social meetups. I would see if there are any local conferences too.
Trying to get internal referrals for a company you want to work for helps.
