Meanwhile most of my classmates have been hired in very prestigious companies.
Lucky for me, I still able to find a low paying freelance and still supported by my parents, even through they surely don't want to see my *** around in home.
Sorry for the rant.... I just need to let this out somewhere.
I can't give you any advice, since I struggled too. Only, maybe you can try freelance job too. If I'm not wrong, you can do Web Design, right? Try to fill your portfolio while keep seeking the job. That's what I can only do right now.

I do ultimately plan on becoming a freelance web developer and possibly an internet marketer as well because honestly, being a freelancer or entrepreneur is the only way to go this day and age, especially if you lack the intelligence, charisma, and resilience required to be a high functioning employee at a company that pays well. Not to mention, if you have any type of mental health issues, these companies generally don't give people like us a fair chance and when they do, they expect us to work our butts off 40-50 hours a week and revolve our lives around their desires for slave wages only for them to generally abandon us when we outlive their usefulness to them.
Unfortunately, I'm still a novice at web developing and it takes time to learn, therefore, while I learn, I need some type of income to support myself.
I might just try some more eBay reselling while I job hunt even though I can't make much off of it without money to reinvest or having a company (which costs money to create) since most wholesellers won't deal with somebody who isn't a registered corporation or LLC so I'll take baby steps for now
