I'm a May 2025 CS grad who's been looking for employment for over a year now, and honestly it's been stressing me out. I tailor every resume and the projects I've done, and I'm constantly building new ones too. I'm sending emails, reaching out to recruiters, reaching out to fellow alumni for referrals (and actually getting them), but still... no job.
I held officer positions in multiple clubs and did research during undergrad, so I know I have experience outside of just classes. I honestly think part of it is that I didn't do any internships.
I've been considering just taking a regular job in the meantime, but I didn't want to because I wanted to focus on grinding LeetCode and doing interview prep. I'm starting to get tired of that cycle too though.
I'm just going through a rough patch rn tbh.
