Recent Computer Science graduate seeks entry-level roles beyond software engineering

I recently graduated with a Computer Science degree about two weeks ago, and I'm feeling really overwhelmed with the job search. I've applied to over 200 positions just in this short time and had been sending out applications throughout my senior year as well. Unfortunately, most companies either reject my applications, ghost me, or I get through the initial interview stages but then hear nothing back. I've completed two software engineering internships, so I do have some experience, but landing a full-time job has been a real struggle. At this point, I'm open to roles that aren't strictly software engineering. I'm looking for something stable, full-time, and an environment where I can grow without constantly feeling like I'm fighting for a chance. I'm curious if anyone else who graduated with a CS degree has switched career paths successfully. What entry-level roles are out there that would value my background but don't require intense live coding interviews? I'm even considering fields outside of tech, like finance, analyst positions, or business-related roles, despite not having a formal background in those areas. I'm willing to learn and start from the ground up if necessary. I'm just eager to find realistic entry-level opportunities in industries like finance, consulting, or operations, as I really want to avoid being unemployed for months.
