Advice Needed! Looking for a new marketing role after being put on furlough due to Covid-19...

Hi! Due to a dramatic drop in business from Covid-19, I was put on an extended furlough while working as a marketing manager for Marriott International. Because of this setback, I was forced to move back to Texas after living in NYC for the past 10 years. Therefore, I'm now having to look for a new marketing opportunity, ideally based in Austin, TX. If anyone has advice on how to best set myself up for success to look for a new job in a new city during such a tumultuous time, I'd so appreciate it! I'm also considering trying to set myself up as a freelance or contract worker, but do not have any experience in that area. I'd welcome any advice that you have! Thank you! Bailey
