Need Advice on Finding a Jr./Entry level Position /u/MainManDio CSCQ protests reddit

I’m a somewhat recent CS: Algorithms grad from the New England area, with a year of experience at an internship doing python / mysql work for backend software development. I’ve been trying to search for an entry level / jr. position job the past month and a half and have had no luck even securing an interview. Before, I was studying and got my AWS AI Practitioner Certification. I’m at the point where I have to change up my strategy of sending 3-5 applications a day on linkedIn, but have heard terrible things about going through head hunters. Is the market this bad or do I need to something different? All my other industry contacts from university and my internship say they aren’t hiring currently.
