It doesn't matter. You just need to apply to things and keep on keeping on. Grades isn't the final indicator of competence. You can always improve and get ahead.
There's nothing destroyed which can't be build over again.
I guess you are in 2nd or third year. I was disappointed just like you. I improved my grades over the years, Halleluijah. You don't know what's gonna happen in future. Even this year, I heard that a student with a comparatively low GPA got the job surprising everyone. Unfortunately, other students did not get it, but things are improving and few more companies might come till the end of this year is what I have heard. Just keep on studying. Do your best! If not corp jobs something else will turn up. I know my friends with multiple year losses getting jobs (not saying that they are bad or below you), so keep your hope alive. Also, don't give up on placements (if that's what you really want) till Day 1. After that too, keep applying but also start looking for other options. That is, if you really want corp job. There is something out there for all of us. Don't worry, just do your best! Isaiah 40:31;)
