Mid-Level Job Hunting

So it finally happened. Got RIFed, after most of my (large non-NY, think CHI/CA/TX market) office group VPs and Directors were RIFed, they let me go. 

Good news - There are plenty of positions open in my market.

Bad news - I have no idea how to go about getting them.

HHs? Linkedin messages to MDs? Go through the website application process?
