Forget applying for JavaScript related jobs. They are a race to the bottom where the name of the game is list of a bunch of comma separated tech debt nonsense to compete with a bunch of insecure beginners. I am saying this as a 15 year full time JavaScript developer that was laid off.
Seriously, did you really find that work fulfilling? Were you writing original software to solve real problems or were you thumping around some template nonsense to put text on screen? Quality and challenge of work also determines the quality of people you work with.
My saving grace was having a security clearance and security certifications that allowed me to pivot to something else. I was willing to go be a Wal-Mart cashier instead of going back to JavaScript nonsense, but my wife forced me to wait until something else near my level came along.
