24 & jobless | what to do?

I'll be unofficially graduating in May but I've yet to secure a FT job😩 its killin me & I'm super worried that I won't be able to find a good job🥲 I know many of my friends are also in the same position as me but competition is really tough & the market isnt looking to hire many entry level roles... I've come to terms that I might not get a job within the next 6 months but here are my plans & how I cope with the anxiety.

1. Exercise🏅

I've been going for more classes & taking better care of my body! Since I have the time now I force myself to take morning classes & try to spend the rest of the day being productive👍🏻 Once i start working, it'll be difficult to maintain an exercise routine so I'm doing what I can now

2. Travel✈️

Travelling gets super difficult once you start working cause you dont get many leaves. If you were to travel far like Europe, you will only be able to stay for a short while🙃 or you can only have 2 short trips 😩 its rlly sad most companies only offer 14-18 days AL but oh well thats life

3. Spend time w my dogs🐶

I always feel super guilty during my busy periods. So i try to spend & bring my dog out as much as I can rn. Even if its just walks around the area, i know they appreciate it💕

4. Internships📈

I will try to take another internship to build my resume during this period & hopefully with more experience, it will make me stand out among others.

5. Side hustles

I'm not completely jobless... i do have some social media hustles which provide some $$$. I'm also looking at short term event or day jobs to past time & earn a lil👍🏻

The anxiety comes & goes so its important to remind yourself that you have a plan & that you are doing something meaningful right now. Lots of working adults actually regret jumping straight into a job immediately after graduating so I'm also kind of glad I have a short break now. Do rmb that you should still be actively looking for a job while you enjoy your break too! 💯
