Take whatever job you can find that pays enough to live on while you work on your next career move.
I was laid off from a high paying IT engineer position in Feb 25, and I got a job doing manual labor at a school until I was able to transition that into a IT position there.
I'm making less than 50% of what I was before, which sucks, but that's public sector for ya.
