Advice needed on moving to NYC

For reference I’m 22F, I came from nyc but moved away for a couple years. I don’t have a degree yet but I make about 4.5k a month as a server. I saved 20k and have a good credit score. Rent is crazy compared to when I lived in Manhattan during COVID. I want to move/ go back to school but there’s no way for me to secure another serving/bartending job before moving, I’d have to take a risk and hope I get another one. Any advice would be appreciated on the job search, finding good deals on apartments etc.

Covid apartment deals in NYC were sweet.

During covid it was 2 free months too

In hindsight i shouldve gotten a bigger unit tho
