>>> Hello, I have graduated for 3 months already. I have a B.S in Computer Science... until now, I just got 2 interviews after sending 180 or more applications and countless cover letters.
The only explanation is that your resume is terrible. Please make an anonymized version and send it here for review.
That is keeping in mind that the available jobs vary a lot by location. It's easier to find a job when living in SF or NY than anywhere else in the USA, yet there is nowhere where it should be as bad as 2/180 interviews.

- winter_blue 9y agoJust for others reading this thread, interns (and new graduates) make around $10,000 per month these days, in the San Francisco Bay Area. Ref: http://sfist.com/2016/05/02/tech_industry_interns_making_bank.php http://sfist.com/2016/05/02/tech_industry_interns_making_ban...
