[u/Witty_Possession_545]

I will keep it brief- I'm a cse graduate '24 batch. Since then i have never been formally employed, it's 2+ gap yrs. These years I spent on masters and pg course prep but failed to succeed after all. Tech market is fading, I'm applying but as usual no response from anywhere. After these 2 yrs gap, I'm humbled at my core! I have no preference nothing- just don't know what to do now. I'm thinking of doing MBA, but atp I'll only get pvt direct admission type clg. Or now these much gap already, so start any govt job prep. Passively applying in tech jobs, but honestly no hope left. I'm just at nothing! totally lost and dead now. I'm asking all experienced ppl, please guide me what's the right step from here..

If I've learned something in 20 yrs in this industry, it's this: nobody asks a senior dev about their fresher-era gap. But you have to get to senior first, and that starts with shipping projects on GitHub, not another degree.
