I am glad that worked out for you to not have to do an extensive search. What you say is true enough, if you don't job seek for a good period of time (several years or more) you may lose what few job-hunting skills you thought you might have once had. I think it is a good idea for nearly all of us to stay in practice for job hunting.
I often recommend job seekers going to job networking functions to learn more about marketing themselves, especially if they suddenly find themselves without work and cannot land another job relatively quickly.
