Just graduated a few weeks ago. May 15th to be exact.
Throughout school I was very disciplined, ate clean, hit the gym daily, had friends, had a regular job and life was pretty good.
Over the past few weeks it feels like my life has fallen apart. For starters, I renewed my lease in my college town because rent was so cheap. So I've already been feeling like stuck. Then I lost my job about a week after I graduated, and have been eating horrible fast food daily, barely hitting the gym. I have been doing DoorDash to just get by, and applying for loads of jobs online with no responses.
I just feel like my life instantly fell apart, and I need to get it back asap before | let myself go, I've already gained a few pounds, and my motivation tanked to do anything besides DoorDash.
Any advice...

Hello everyone,

I recently graduated in May 2026, with a BS Management minor marketing. I have been looking for a job for a few months, with no surprises, not getting one. I feel like my resume is just not working for me, yet I have a decent rap sheet. I would love a marketing job, or management, and have experience running my own small business, in which I handle everything from SEO, ad spend, ad tailoring, and managing and fulfilling orders. (e-commerce) I have recently broken $10,000 in sales, or around $3000 in profit, over a few months, but obviously it isn't enough to live on. Should I put this in my resume? I have a feeling recruiters see this and think they dont want a business owner working for them, but my skills can be very helpful to certain roles.

I graduated in may 2026, and have been applying for internships, and jobs since I was a junior. Out of over 700 applications over 2 years online, I managed to get 2 interviews, both ended in nothing. A month out of college and this week I stopped applying for jobs. I basically am done trying atm. (will start next week again lol) . But seriously.. is it worth it? Everyone I know is in the same boat, no job out of college, no leads nothing. Cold responses from every recruiter. For the avg person not given a job thru nepotism, what is still giving you hope? Like I seriously believe I am screwed honestly. I don't hear back from anybody. My resume is honestly decent from a few marketing jobs and startups I have worked for while in college, but it feels like nobody is even reading the applications. I don't want responses to be the same generic "more people than jobs right now", or "job market is bad rn". Its not just bad, its the worst its been for college students since the Great Depression imo. Jobs are actively being replaced with AI, and corporations are cutting size monthly. It has no chance of getting better tbh, and if you think so you are coping. People who graduated a few years ago don't truly understand how the class of 2025, or 2026 feels, since they had a much easier time getting an entry level position and are way better off than us, who can't even start their career and build a decent resume.

I’ve been having the issue of saving enough money out of college for this store and website I’ve designed . It’s a high ticket dropshipping store and I feel so close to success as I’ve had a few leads but blew them. Recently I’ve run out of money for ads and feel this weird feeling of everything falling apart right before success. I also have a horrible credit atm from a couple recent missed payments. I’m in debt and have bills, but need money for ads to run my business. (Not an ad) saunacompanyusa.com is my business (website is currently not able to checkout anyway) I’ve been doing DoorDash to pay ads per day but recently needed to stop to afford rent and feel so stuck and frustrated

I want to make a new account to get the same amount of good orders I did when I first signed up. Thoughts?

I’m blown away by how little they offer people to take orders that take over 20-30 minutes. I live in a busy market yet get bombarded with 2 dollar 15 min orders.. or 6 dollar 35 min orders. I don’t think at any time of the day I can break minimum wage before expenses. How tf is DoorDash still operating if they pay their drivers horribly

My name is shain (sounded shane) just spelled differently. Any thoughts ? Just wanna know
