I can't get a job and I'm starting to worry...

[fabger]

I had to leave my internship (I have 2 liberal arts degrees but I managed to get into finance) in early October 2024. I have been actively looking for a job since November and the best I've got was a 2nd round interview. I have been applying mainly for suitable junior positions but all I've got was rejection so far(Over 100+ applications+recruiters.)

Maybe my degrees are holding me back?

My family is very supportive but I have to start working in a few months.

I understand the Hungarian economy is garbage rn but it really doesn't help.

(On the bright side it was a perfect time to get started with PUA lol)

100 applications? That's just the beginning!

If you dedicate a good portion of your day, you can send out 100 CVs in less than a week.

It took me hundreds of CVs to land my first job, so don't lose heart, my friend!

I am a software developer and needed to write 5 CVs, I got 4  positions and chosed the best one.

So it depends on the field and your country. If a software developer needs to write 100 applications then he should really start to worry.

Could you move out of Hungary? Do you have any extra savings?
