BoredThrowaway9000's journey

I’ve been on a job search for the past year and a half, and I’m feeling completely lost. I graduated a year ago with a Bachelor’s in Science and a minor in Business, but I have no work experience to show for it. Growing up, I was focused on my studies and extracurricular activities, and I never had a job during high school or college because I was fortunate enough to have my parents support me financially. Now, I find myself in a tough spot. I feel like I’m the only one who didn’t have a job growing up, and it’s really frustrating to see others land positions while I struggle to even get an interview. I’ve applied to countless jobs, but nothing seems to be working out. I’m looking for genuine advice or stories from anyone who has been in a similar situation and managed to find their way out. I need to get paid and support myself, but I feel like I’m in a catch-22 where I can’t get a job without experience, but I can’t gain experience without a job. It’s disheartening, and I really hope there’s a way forward that doesn’t just rely on luck.
