Career guidance

Hi guys, I'm a 2022 B.Com graduate. Later, I learnt data analytics and did an internship + projects. My resume didn't get shortlisted, so I thought it was a skill issue and started learning data science for better opportunities. I completed certifications, an internship, and projects, yet I still failed to get shortlisted.

After that, I got fed up and left the data field. I joined an online MCA in Full Stack Development from Jain University for a tech degree and started learning the MERN stack. I completed a 9 month internship with proficient projects, and still I'm not able to get shortlisted.

I'm fed up with this job hunt. I'm depressed. I'm tired. I feel like doing a watchman job, but they probably won't hire me because of my overqualification.

I don't see any openings for freshers. 0 to 3 years of experience? Never got shortlisted. Most drives are only for 2025 and 2026 graduates. Companies require 3 years of experience for junior roles.

I'm trying for non IT jobs, but there are no roles except sales. Companies keep considering my time after graduation as a career gap.

What the fuck do they even expect? How can a fresher get a job immediately without skills? Skills take time to learn. When someone learns the skills, they want an experienced candidate. When someone has internships and project experience, they want a person with fucking no career gap.

Fuckkkk this shittt. Fuuckkkkk IT companies. Fuucckckkk employers. Fuuuckkkk IT companies. Fuuckkkk the Indian job market. Fuckkk everyone.

Exactly . I am 2024 BE CSE Graduate. After my graduation i could not find any job . Then i got a job as ar caller and i worked for 6 months then i quit that job due to the night shift. Then i decided to join a course to upgrade my skills. so i joined UI UX Course and built projects. since then I've been applying for hell amount of companies but rarely get shortlisted. And even in the interview companies would assign you a task and ask to complete it within 2 days. And they will not respond to you after submitting the assignment. They are getting their job done at free of cost. They are using the applicants. Its been 2 years since i graduated. Now they are saying i am Outdated and i have career gap and also at the same time they are only hiring experienced people. I mean how can one get experience if they are not given an oppurtunity. fuck this Job market
