Thousands of layoffs hit workers across the nation in the past few months. The news has created a sense of insecurity that triggered many across all industries to ask, "What if I'm next?"

First off, try to keep perspective throughout the process. It may seem like every Big Tech company is letting people go and it will be hard to find another job, but the reality isn't as gloomy. Tech workers can find jobs within three to six months of being laid off, according to ZipRecruiter's lead economist Sinem Buber.
