I think just finally getting hooked up with the recruiters who have the "IN's" into the big companies (versus just applying directly to companies). The recruiters got me the interviews which led to an offer. I had 4 interviews last week. Everything kind of hit at once.

My company is still laying off and will continue to do so periodically for at least another 3-4 months.

That's great, Congrats. With 4 interviews, I hope you were able to leverage a bit more money out of them
