Not really. I was kind of lucky in that the people I worked for kept my job open for 3 years so I had a job to go back to when I graduated last time. There's lots of usability work out there but it's pretty competitive!

If you don't mind me asking...how old are you? How did you get into the industry?

I'm just curious, It's something I would be interested in.

I'm 36. I got into the industry by virtue of having the degree in Cognitive Science and the company I worked for had a requirement for people who were skilled in Human-Computer Interaction and usability. I didn't really make any deliberate effort to go into that area. I just got tasked with work in that area because I had the right skills.
I see, so what, are you looking to move from more of the analysis of interfaces to the creation, with this degree?
