I cannot even get an interview

I am about to graduate with a BS in Computer Science. I have been plainly unable to obtain an internship over the course of my schooling. I have a couple of certifications, and I have, what I would consider, some fairly significant projects to put on my resume. Ones with real clients. I have over the last couple of months, put out a total of 660 applications for entry level jobs, junior level positions and internships. I have gotten more than 100 rejection emails. I had one company send me a coding assessment which I think i just about nailed (3 coding questions and a free response. Got full correct on the first two, even scoring the bonus functionality of the second question. Got 8/11 test cases for the last question to pass). I ultimately got a rejection from that one as well. I don't know what I'm supposed to…

I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I spent so much effort to get this degree and nobody will even give me a chance.
