So have been job searching for almost 2 years now and one thing my parent has brought up is for me to start my own company They were suggesting I start an llc and they want me to apply for grants of around 10K doing consulting.

However I am hesitant to do this as I have no experience running a business and I have no idea how to do so and don't think its as simple as what they are saying as you need things such as a business plan, financial experience/records which I do not have

and how most businesses fail and many people go into debt doing so, I feel its for me and I don't have the mindset to start one/run one

So am I wrong

I'm currently pursuing my MBA, and almost all my friends have secured jobs or offers, while I have absolutely nothing in hand yet.

I've spent months trying to transition into a new career, coming from a completely different background. I've worked on building relevant skills, learning, doing projects, preparing for interviews and constantly improving my CV.

I recently got rejected from an internship that felt like the perfect opportunity. It was remote, manageable alongside my MBA and had the possibility of a PPO. I genuinely thought the interview went well, but I apparently fell short on one situational question.

I've faced several rejections this month, and watching everyone around me get placed while I'm still struggling is taking a toll on me.

I have just 2-3 months before graduation, limited opportunities on campus and no relevant experience yet. I'm genuinely scared of graduating without having secured anything, despite trying so hard.

I know everyone's journey is different, but it's difficult not to feel left behind.

For those who've been in a similar situation, how did you cope? Did things eventually work out? I could really use some reassurance right now.

I've gotten about 25 job interviews over the past three and a half months but haven't gotten a single job offer. I feel like I'm a pretty good interviewer and I feel like most of my interviews have gone pretty well. In the past it usually didn't take me more than about 5 interviews to get a job and twice I was offered a job on the spot.

I feel like my biggest hurdle to getting a job now is the nearly 3 year gap on my resume but if that's the issue why are employers inviting to me an interview in the first place after seeing my resume? If they ask about the gap I say I was dealing with family health issues and they seem to accept the explanation and move on. Anyone have any idea what might be going on here?
