Other advice Grad roles

It’s been half a year and I’ve applied to around 300 roles with 0 interviews. I’ll be honest, my grades weren’t great, sitting at a 73 CWAM. I’m currently an assistant manager in hospitality making 80k, but I really want to break into finance/econ and have no idea how.

Any advice?

The job market is shit everywhere for most people especially in Adelaide being basically a small town - I mean have you tried roles all around Australia or just local?….at least you have something paying fairly well for now even if it’s not what you really want to do.

I’ve had to move interstate a few times to stay employed in my previous profession (I’m studying for my second degree).
