Man, it's really hard. Do you know what I keep hearing? People tell me stuff like 'ah, go work in a store, do anything' and that literally kills me. It's not like I demand to be a CEO. I just want a decent job that's related with my degree. But also if I get some random job it kinda makes it impossible to go to the interviews and for tests if/when somebody calls me.

If this professor finds me some it's surely going to be related with my field so saying no will be literally impossible because I'd love to get something, anything, that's at least decent.

But if I get doors smashed into my face people will keep telling me 'go do anything until something pops off'. I personally don't know anyone who did that and found something better later. They usually settle and one or two years pass by... you have zero experience in your field and there will be younger people with MA applying for the same job. It sounds like a no-no way for me. But it's sure hell on earth to find anything normal here.
It all comes down to if you would rather be unemployed? - I don't know, but you don't sound like you enjoy it much. If people settle, it's their problem - do you think you would do the same?

I don't like this tbh.

How would I deal with going to interviews if I work and it's impossible to change shifts? Sounds like a trouble for me.

It's also pretty hard to settle with selling shoes in a store after studying so much for 4 years :sad: It's not like I'm any better than others... but looking at this horrible situation it seems like studying didn't even pay off.

It's no fun. In todays world, unemployment means loss of identity. As I said before, it's easier to get the job you want when you're already within the organisation.

Edit: And of course, it easy for people like me to say, when I'm not in the same situation :)
