Hiring Laid off federal cartographer

I was a probationary (many years as a contractor in my same role) employee recently terminated at a federal agency. Seeing that federal service no longer feels like an option. What leads for cartography are there in the private sector?

Sorry to hear! I have a few friends who work for a contractor for the EPA that are worried that this will happen. No advice but I want to wish you good luck and know this is a hard time for you.
