Feeling lost in my job search after two years without full-time work

I’m currently feeling lost after nearly two years without a full-time job. I’m 28 and completed my BA in International Development in 2020, followed by an MA in Political Science in 2022. I had a position as a Research/Project Management Associate from 2023 to 2024, but since then, my job search has been unsuccessful. Right now, I’m doing part-time work for my father, which makes me feel guilty as if I’m leeching off him. I’m confused about what’s wrong with me because I’m trying to make ends meet but feel like I’m not contributing enough. Last year, I worked with an employment counselor who reviewed my CV and cover letter, and they said they looked good. However, I’ve only managed to secure two interviews so far. I’ve been proactive, reaching out for informational interviews on LinkedIn, but still, no luck. It’s been such a long time, and I can’t help but feel like a failure in my job search.
