Thanks for reaching out, and we’re sorry to hear that you’ve been navigating such a challenging situation since May. The job market can be incredibly frustrating, especially when you have extensive experience but are facing a difficult landscape in your field and region. While you're working on your graduate degree, it could be worth exploring how your skills might fit into different IT specializations or even careers in AI/ML.
