There was a time I was applying for 50 jobs daily to getting 4 job offers from tier 1s, I have seen all the stages of this struggle!
My only advice is, Just keep a positive attitude, don't let this define you, keep the confidence high!
It will all work out, the way it is meant to, trust me!
Keep trying every day, don't shy away from applying to all kinds of places and talk to as many people as possible!
I graduated from a good law school this year (2 months ago) and with pretty decent grades. I have given numerous interviews in this period of time and nothing has worked out. I keep getting ghosted after interviews. I'm feeling a quite lost and hopeless now. 2 months isn't a long period of time but I think the fact that a few people from my batch had already secured placements before college ended, and even friends who had not managed to get PPOs have gotten jobs by now. So these 2 months have felt really long and it has been quite an isolating experience.
I'm not sure what I expect from any responses but any guidance, words of wisdom, or anything at all would be helpful.
