Additionally one of the companies I interviewed with that cancelled the role I was applying for has now brought the posting back. I've reapplied but I'm not sure if I should reach out to the HR contact I had.
Was a good week last week, but today it feels a little hopeless. Guess it's all about mindset. Tomorrow is a new day.

Hoping you end up with more than one option out of those. I may be old school however I still believe strongly that a polite post-interview follow up thank you note goes a long ways. Either written, typed, or emailed. Nothing wrong also with a friendly follow up as well 1-2 weeks later.
Since you WILL be working again soon (be positive!!) now is a good time to knock off some of your home to-do items which also helps you feel personally productive.
