I graduated Magna Cum Laude in 2021 for my Bachelors in Software System Engineering. I was able to get a job in Missouri after two months of searching. After a year and four months, we moved to Minnesota and I have to look for another job.

It’s been four months and I can’t seem to get past any initial interview in any type of software job. If it’s a Jr position, you need five years experience. If it’s Entry Level, you better know five programming language. How do I get experience if no one hires me to get experience? I’m two months behind on house payments because I didn’t expect it would take so long to find something.

Jobs: “No one wants to work.”

Also jobs: “Here’s a ten page list of requirements for this entry level position.”

I’m frustrated, angry, worried, scared, all of the above. I’m a disabled veteran that has had to work and fight for everything I have and I just want a fucking chance to work in what I studied.
