I need some advice. I've been job searching since I graduated in 2024 (software jobs). At the time, I didn't have real production experience, just solo projects. During the past year and a half, I've used every method... Linkedin and and indeed easy apply, then moving to wellfound and ycombinator, applying on company websites, debated dev10 and revature, actually tried and didn't pass, and finally got internships.... That wasted my time, didn't pay me. I did get production experience, but still not a stable job. Recently tried hn ask who's hiring, hiringcafe, and in general unless it's a low paying or volunteer role, I get to final round and fail Another issue is part time work.... I need to get paid in one way or another, so I've been working retail. I have scoliosis and flat feet, wonderful combination, so it's starting to take a toll on me.... And I know I have to quit but I can't.... I need advice.... At this point does anyone have advice for job searching, apart from cold emailing, finding niche domains, niche job boards, networking, events, referrals, tailoring resume, or do I just do all this and try harder😭 Also, is there another option for part time work for steady income apart from retail
