Any advice on post-grad job search? Feeling hopeless

Hey everyone, I'm well into my second month of post-grad job searching and have started feeling kind of hopeless. I've improved my resume a lot and have been interviewed by four different companies, reaching the second-to-last round with two of them. Those last two have been pretty exhausting, each with a three-hour trial project. I've mainly applied to entry-level positions at PR firms/agencies, all in NYC, no in-house.

Does anybody have any advice? I want to network more but am wondering what kind of networking has worked for you guys. Does anybody have any recs for PR-focused job boards or forums besides LinkedIn? What interview tips would you give me? And would it be worthwhile to think about getting another internship?

Got this after checking in after a 5th round interview, am I cooked?

Been interviewing here for the past 3 weeks, made it to the 5th round (3 distinct interview rounds, 2 trial projects/assessments, next round is the final), and didn’t hear back for a few days, so I emailed a check-in and got this. entry level role btw.

Updated my resume based on everyone's suggestions. How does it look now?

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I got two interviews! I'm a recent grad looking for a full-time entry-level role in PR/Brand Management in NYC.

Resume/Career advice for a recent graduate trying to break into PR in NYC.

Hi everyone! I'm a recent comm grad trying to break into the PR/Comms/Social Media/Brand Management industry in NYC. I've been applying for jobs listings but have had little success in getting interviews, even when trying to network through alumns. I know just applying for jobs listings isn't enough so I’m trying to do more cold pitching. I was wondering if anyone had any resume advice or advice on how to find recruiters/groups or better cold pitch.
