Layoffs

Got laid-off from a YC backed startup
Hi folks,
I got laid off today from a YC-backed startup (W23) citing a shift in product focus. Was part of the core team since Oct '21, initially as an intern then later converted to FTE in '22. Got a decent (30%+) increment this year. I was leading the mobile platform but currently, I'm on a notice period. CTO is supportive and helping me via their network.
I'm a recent graduate and this is my first time experiencing a layoff. What should I do now? What things should I keep in mind looking for the next opportunity?

Scenes at YC backed startups after SFB crash?
Any info on How are the things at YC backed startups? Carwale, Razorpay, etc. ? Are you guys taking a pay cut or is the startup planning to layoff folks? What’s the scene?
