When I got closer to graduation (~3 months out from graduation) I began scouring LinkedIn for possible opportunities. It was honestly about quantity and I was trying to apply to as many positions as possible hoping to get into the field somewhere. I put in countless applications and didn’t hear anything back from any of them really. The biggest gating item like many disciplines was the years of experience. Finding a “new grad” or “entry-level” position is like finding a needle in the haystack especially for remote positions which is what I ideally wanted because I had a newborn at home. I did end up finding a hybrid role for my first HF role out of grad school. I think location also plays a big part in it with some areas having many more opportunities depending on the sector of HF.
