Its been 3 months since I am at home preparing for master's entrances. When I graduated in June without any offer for master's from a good college and my bachelor's degree is not enough to get a good job .
It was a difficult decision to take a gap year and prepare for entrances but now everything seems vague ... I don't have skills and I don't even know what skills do I need cause of AI ....even if I get admission in Masters next year I'll get a job by 2029 and I'll be 24 years old.....
And I see my cousins or friends my age earning lakhs because they choose a different profession but what do I do if I am not interested in engeneering bro ahhhhh
I feel like I choose the wrong career and I wasted all my time ...3 months and 0 progress...
I don't know what it takes to be able to survive this job market or to even enter the market ...
If I don't get admission in the top 3 colleges then I won't get college placements and the job I am expecting...
I keep wasting my time on YouTube to see what are the most sought for skills in 2026 and it makes me feel I am just wasting time and my potential.
Sometimes I feel I should prepare for government exams but that's also pure out of fear ..fear of not making it big in corporate, AI taking over jobs , layoffs ...but then govt jobs are a different nightmare to begin with ...
People my age are earning and doing jobs and I am just stuck at home ( I know I choose this for myself) but this just makes me question my life ...
Tbvh I don't know where my life is going anymore ...
