2024 CS Graduate with Career Gap, feeling completely lost, need honest guidance.

Hey everyone, I’m a 2024 Computer Science graduate, and I honestly feel like I’ve messed things up. After graduation, I had some personal issues and had to move back to my village. I ended up doing nothing career-wise for months. No coding, no projects, barely kept up with tech, just the occasional article here and there. I wasn’t a great student to begin with. Didn’t sit for placements, and now I’ve been unemployed since graduating. So yeah… not a great position to be in. Now I’m back in the city and reality is hitting hard. I want to fix things, but I feel completely lost and don’t even know where to start. In college, I did basics of React (frontend), Python, & Data Science / ML. Had a few small projects, but I don’t remember much now. It honestly feels like I’m starting from zero. I just need some honest advice: * Should I still try to pursue tech, or is it too late for me? * If yes, what field should I focus on now? * If not, what other career options should I realistically consider? * How do I even restart after such a long gap and low confidence? I’m ready to put in the work. I just don’t want to waste more time going in the wrong direction. Would really appreciate any guidance, even if it’s blunt. Thanks 🙏
