Poor mental and physical health condition is the reason why I did not apply for college placements, and I’ve been jobless since then. Looking at the job page, I get discouraged so easily, as they are paying laughably low wages while also looking for experience and skill, and I’m having second thoughts about completing my degree.
I have graduated at the end of last September, and it has been more than a year. I don’t have any job experience, including internship. What should I start with? I’ve been learning SvelteKit for quite some time, I’m taking a break from my portfolio webpage project right now, and learning to create a TUI editor in C. Any advice would be appreciated.
If you can hold a clearance and are a US citizen, maybe look for government jobs.
Consider internships, too.
Don’t think about salary at this point, experience is really what you need to focus on. Get a couple years under your belt and then you can search for something that pays better.
Lastly, be kind to yourself. Applying for jobs is hard. It takes a lot of effort then feels very personal when you get rejected or ghosted. That’s normal. Do your best to keep your head high and do something small every day. Best of luck, friend.
