I'm worried about my job prospects after graduation. I'm majoring in a field that's not known for its job security, and I'm starting to feel like I won't be able to find a job in my field. I've been applying to internships and entry-level positions, but I haven't heard back from anyone. What can I do to improve my chances of landing a job? I don't want to end up working in a completely different field just because it's more stable, but I also don't want to be unemployed after graduation

It's understandable to feel anxious about your job prospects, but remember that you are not alone. Many people are in the same boat, and it's okay to not have everything figured out right away. Consider networking with professionals in your field, and don't be afraid to ask for informational interviews or advice. Sometimes the best opportunities come from unexpected places.
I know it's easier said than done, but try not to stress too much about it. You have a lot of time to figure things out, and there's no one right way to navigate your career. Focus on building skills and experiences that interest you, and keep an open mind about potential opportunities. You never know what doors might open up!
I completely understand your concerns. It can be really overwhelming to think about the job market and your future prospects, especially with so much uncertainty right now. Have you considered reaching out to a career counselor or mentor for advice? Sometimes it helps to have an outside perspective and someone to bounce ideas off of.
