Anyone else struggling rn?🥺

Graduated college a year ago and still no job, this market is awful and so discouraging. Interview after interview and still no success.

2024/12/17 Edited to

Many recent graduates share similar struggles when entering a challenging job market. With high competition and limited opportunities, it’s essential to adapt your approach. Consider expanding your search beyond traditional job boards to include networking events, informational interviews, and social media platforms like LinkedIn. Building a strong online presence can enhance your visibility to potential employers. Don't forget to tailor your resume and cover letter for each application, emphasizing relevant skills and experiences. Continuous learning through online courses can also make you a more attractive candidate. Finally, remember the importance of mental health during this stressful time; connecting with peers facing similar challenges can provide support and motivation. Additionally, exploring internships or volunteer work can be a great way to gain experience and make valuable connections in your desired industry. Stay persistent, and keep refining your job-hunting strategy to navigate this tough landscape effectively.

For me taking classes at night makes learning easier. It’s less crowded (usually 10-15 students) which makes my social anxiety less intense. After class I still got time to go through my notes. The classes are hard, but once you get a grip on them, they become manageable. Ask me anything you
