Hello all. F(25) just recently laid off after 2 years. I was working as a government contractor on various CMS contracts but was laid off last Thursday due to DOGE efficiency reviews preventing me from going back to the team I was working with. I was working remotely and have moved around a few times while working remotely so I do not have much of a network and am new to New York. I don’t even know where to start with getting a new job, all I hear is you have to know somebody here to even get an interview. Could anybody please give me some direction or guidance on how I should pick up the pieces? I have over 10 years of legal experience (yes I started working in law firms at 15, I knew what I wanted in life) but I am feeling very disheartened by what I hear about the job market.
