Many are in the same boat as me looking for suggestions. I recently graduated a few months ago. Back then I was getting multiple opportunities to interview for companies. Unfortunately, I wasn't actively looking back then, but I am now.<p>The job market seems to be dry for early career folks. For example, senior engineers I know are still getting interviews and offers. But the story isn't the same for new grads.<p>Do you folks have any suggestions on what I should do. Here are my thoughts:<p>1. Keep applying for jobs and see what happens after one month<p>2. Get an MBA<p>3. Get my masters in AI or something else?<p>4. Get a law degree<p>5. Start my own startup
Since you are in the job search phase, get completely organized for it.<p>Allocate your time for job research and apply for multiple open positions that interest you.<p>Followup on job applications from the previous week where you haven't heard back.<p>Focus on a side-project: If you are interested in AI, you may try to learn some of the frameworks, review open source projects and perhaps contribute to them in terms of code/documentation/issues/Pull requests etc.,<p>Meet different people and build a (real) network. See if there are projects you could work on for them that helps you learn and build experience.<p>Talk about all of this in your job interviews.<p>Good luck.
Show up on time with a smile on your face. People look out for people they are agreeable with. Do that in any industry and you can write your own ticket
