Anxiety right before work; fighting off a panic attack. I suddenly feel like I'm in real danger of homelessness in the immediate future, related to my apparent inability to get a damn grad role.
Fuck.
Not sure what industry you are in, but the grad role market might pick up in the new year when companies look to hire. However, your priority should be your own welfare and if that means taking a job not in your field so you have income, then do that. I’ve known grads that have had unrelated jobs initially but gone on to find work in their chosen fields, as long as it’s not too long between graduating and grad role.
