Cant find even non CS related job /u/el_lobo_cimarron CSCQ protests reddit

I was laid off from solo web developer position at a very small company 1,5 years ago and can’t find a job. I’m burned out from grinding leet code. I have a professional portfolio website with real projects from my 3 years of experience in e-commerce and some small gigs. I finished my bachelor’s degree in computer science hoping it would help somehow, but still couldn’t get any jobs. I managed to get tech support gig at a battery company for a few months until the company went bankrupt. Then I tried selling batteries at another company for a few more months, but that didn’t go well either. At least I learned a great deal of data visualisation and reporting tools since I tried to find leads using company’s past data. Anyway I work in the homeless shelter now, just handing food to the residents. I started self studying accounting, excel and QuickBooks because I was hoping I could maybe move to finance department if I apply for entry level position within the company so I could go to data or financial analytics eventually, but even within my own company I got rejected. Anywhere I apply i don’t even make it into interview phase. I would take any job where I feel like I’m using my degree or brain at least at this point. I lost all the confidence in myself. I’m tired, burned out. I drove 2 hours today for an interview at a company where my fiance works and they were okay with me not having any relevant experience since it’s a very rural town, they said they will train me they just need an organized person and my fiance was very positive about it. Interview lasted like 10 minutes and they were not acting very interested. I was considering just drive off the cliff on my way back. I’m fine, just ranting. Want to hear your stories too so I don’t feel like the most useless person in the world.
