Hedging Layoffs - Placement

Returning FT and placement set to happen over next few months. I was in TMT but now seriously thinking of joining industrials or FIG. Can't imagine tech is seeing a sniff of large scale activity, and if things progress at the same rate tech is going to be quiet which in turn equals great probability of headcount reduction. What are your thoughts on aiming for a less cyclical group despite "prestige". At this BB, tech/industrials about the same.
