Job-hunting here is soul crushing.

I am aware of how competitive the market is, and I am working on applying for jobs every day. I am also mindful that we must begin somewhere, so even if I have to take a job that isn't exactly what I'd like to do, I will accept it. Sadly I'm not finding that either right now, but I know I'll get there!

The alternative is sitting at home, ranting on Reddit and decreasing your chance of getting hired with every day passing by as any organization will ask what you did with your time, while others hustle, bust their asses and take a position that could have been yours.

My apologies if my post came off as a rant, I mainly posted it to know if there were others in my position. Just to make myself feel less alone if you will. That doesn't mean I'm not working hard to find a job. You do know people can't spend the entire day doing one thing right? Taking breaks is a thing.
