Currently work part-time as janitor while finishing my bs in cs and I make pennies, so I've been trying to find a new job for the last year and have gotten exactly NOTHING. This summer alone I must have applied to dozens of different places and it amounted to fuck all. So I thought, "well, maybe I should just wait until I graduate and try to find something", so I started looking into tech jobs.
EVERYTHING IS AT LEAST 2 YEARS EXPERIENCE. LICENSES IN THIS OR THAT. NEEDING COMPTIA A+ AND OTHER SHIT. Basically, if you aren't already experienced, get fucked. Even if I didn't hate coding, I couldn't find a entry level software job either, they ALL had similar bullshit requirements. The tech industry is so fucking oversaturated it's insane, why was I fed this lie that this was where the big money is? I wish I could go back in time and stop myself from going to college at all and instead go into a trade.
At this point, I don't know what to do. I hate this gay country.
Just gotta keep trying - I sent hundreds of applications to the wrong job types as well (like web dev - I only had one major project and my head wasn't really in the game). But I did land some interviews for it, I just failed the few I did get to.
Keep at it man and find your niche, if you have a BS in CS you can find something because my degree was technically worse as all the CS students at my school took objectively harder classes. Our degree program was all easier shit - and we only took a few classes alongside the CS guys.
