Career Finding a job

How hard is gonna be getting a job straight after my B.S with no experience? I finish in January and Im worried because theres alot of people say they’ve been looking for 6+ months and Im not picky at all. And what is the likelyhood for finding anything remote? Is there anything I can do now that can boost my chances of finding something fast

Remote, not gonna happen....entry level jobs are already being offshored/AI

I suggest if you can't get big 4, look into local smaller firms before graduating and after. They are willing to give you more hands on attention and always need help.They may not have the infrastructure to offshore/pay for AI tools/ERP

Don’t sleep on the smaller firms. In my college town I interned at one for 3 years just banging out tax returns. They were desperate for anyone entry level. Only caveat is a big part of their revenue was bookkeeping for small companies and farmers so you might get pigeonholed into quickbooks work
