About to get laid off as a 1st year

First-year analyst here. My firm recently announced that we’re going to be let go in ~2 months and instructed us to begin seeking other opportunities. It sucks that this is happening in my first year but at least I have some runway.

Any advice on how best to proceed? Just thinking about applying everywhere and blasting out cold emails.
