Laid off 2 months ago!

Got laid off 2 months back (Tier-1 MBA grad with 3.5yoe) and while I’m getting some interviews, nothing’s converting yet. Starting to feel like this gap might keep growing and eventually hurt my chances of landing something solid. I’m staying patient and optimistic and all that, but I’m thinking- should I be doing something on the side (freelancing, upskilling, whatever) to cover the gap? How important is it? Main concern: If I don’t get a job in the coming months, I don’t want to look back and think, damn, I should’ve done XYZ to improve my chances. I’m looking for any advice to navigate better through these times, strictly from a career standpoint!
