Total of 6 years (my fault), graduated with honors. Can’t get a job because I don’t have experience. Countless applications out. Zero interviews.

Start out doing helpdesk. The job sucks and so does the pay, but it’s a foot in the door and where most IT people I know started out (including me)
Can’t agree more. Managers normally want to see “professional” work experience. College, courses, certifications only get you so far. Working a year or two as a help desk technician will really push your career forward.
There’s also the aspect of the managerial “I had to do it so why should you get to skip to the middle” attitude, which isn’t fair but is reality
