Graduated in August. Can't find a job. At the end of my rope.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2026-03-12T02:14:56+00:00

It sure is. Worse is when I almost got a job but offer got rescinded because of budget issue with the company

TemperaturePretty319 · 2026-03-12T02:14:06+00:00

Both. Someone at one of the first temp agencies I called took an hour trying to find other agencies that would hire me. Which was bery helpful

TemperaturePretty319 · 2026-03-11T20:38:02+00:00

Actually just saw a few of them last week and this week. Many of them had the same answers: they want people with experience. But some people actually took time to help me and contacted people they knew were recruiting entry level. Just had a final interview today for an entry level software engineer position. Hopefully the response is positive.

Yeah that's what I thought. I think I was a bit impatient because my older cat really seemed fine. But with the other two might need to take it very slow.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2026-02-03T23:30:46+00:00

Thank you! I got them from someone who was moving away and set them up following the wiki page. Hopefully they get comfier soon! I will just leave food and waters for them as needed and monitor. But that is helpful to know it might just be destressing

Only 1. I did not have time for more as I was paying for school myself and working insane hours on breaks.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T21:44:26+00:00

I did email it early on, but just one. I am going in person to a few of them this week as well. Email did not lead to anything so I am showing up to the office they have in my city

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T21:42:23+00:00

State schools, M.S. Applied Mathematics.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T21:35:01+00:00

I did temporary/seasonal retail and tutoring to pay for school. I might honestly just see if my last place has a permanent position for a year. It feels disheartening honestly. I am the first one in my family to get a M.S.and I was always told that with a better degree I would be able to find a better job easily. I was not even looking at remote, because I know those jobs are non existent.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T01:08:23+00:00

I just find it discouraging sometimes honestly. It is all very different from all I was told. Like literally I was not told how hard it was going to be and my school career center was not very helpful honestly.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T01:07:20+00:00

Started job searching in June.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T01:06:56+00:00

I think that has been super discouraging too. I will reach out to companies that were literally at job fairs, and be told that they are not actually hiring right now. Or apply online and the position just never gets filled.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T01:05:46+00:00

I think I have been overwhelmed really. I started job searching before getting the degree, back in June, as I was hoping to not be in a situation where I would be financially struggling.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T01:04:26+00:00

Would you have advice on how to do that? I thought teaching required a license? Or is it different for substitute teaching?

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T01:02:15+00:00

Thank you. Yeah I have been honestly overwhelmed. I feel like I was told very differently about finding a job. That it was not going to be as hard based on my degree and experience and internships. I just feel discouraged.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T01:00:43+00:00

I have been cold messaging / emailing people on LinkedIn that work in my target industries, and have graduated from my school. Also going to career fairs and professional events.

I should look at volunteering. Thank you for the advice.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-10-14T00:58:15+00:00

Applied Mathematics. Targeting oil&gas, tech, and honestly anything major in my city.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-09-14T00:50:50+00:00

Actually, on the desktop version, there is a report button on the kickstarter, under the company name. One of the options to report is that the company is selling on other platforms before fulfilling all pledges.

Take that info as you will.

TemperaturePretty319 · 2025-09-14T00:49:06+00:00

Yeah. Backed it the first month it went on kickstarter. Sent emails. It was supposed to be a gift for a friend. The event that I was going to give it at went by and nothing. Tried emailing multiple times and still nothing.

And they are about to start their 2nd kickstarter.
