I really need a job in less than 2 months, because I’m being kicked out of the house in 2 months.

I am also a 20 year old university student currently studying Computer Science, and half of my tuition is already being paid by OSAP, which means that I’ll need to pay around $2k for it.

I also don’t have any prior work experience, but I do know Linux, C#, C/C++, HTML, CSS, JavaScript (but nothing advanced like React or SQL or game development), and Java. I also don’t have any prior projects of my own that I can present in my portfolio. After looking at the job market for programmers, I figured that I’m probably not yet skilled enough to apply as a web developer or sysadmin.

I have also asked my school if they have any open positions for something like a TA, but I’m still waiting to make an appointment.

I have also sent out a few resumes to places like Starbucks and Walmart, but so far I haven’t gotten any interviews yet.

My GPA is also like 2.3, so I don’t know if I’ll be able to apply for grants with that kind of a GPA.

I also have my social insurance card with me, so will I be able to get any insurance with it?

I’ve also been hearing on the news that the job market in Canada is being flooded by immigrants, mortgage and rent prices are crazy, and food is also crazy expensive, which really worries me.

I’m also totally stressed out from this.

    Dude, don’t sell yourself short. You should get an entry level IT job with your qualifications without to much of a problem. How do you get a job? Apply. Just go and do it. Just make profiles on LinkedIn etc. Also GitHub. You can just upload your student projects. Nobody expects you to have done anything ground breaking. Two months is plenty of time but you should get cracking right now.
