I've been out about three months now, start looking for a job sooner rather than later. I'm just now getting phone interviews and interviews for jobs I applied to months ago. I read somewhere to expect to be unemployed for a month for each 10k you expect to make. So I guess the more you want to transition to the longer you have to wait. I hope you have some money saved up because unemployment isn't very much. As for whether I'll take a recall it will just depend on what I end up doing in the mean time and how much I like it.
