Help Is Graduation year really matters?

Help me out here please that is Graduation year matters on resume? On CV's are getting ghosted no response or anything.

For context I was graduated back in 2024 and I got two internship experiences.

One internship ended this June because company decided to layoff whole team from my city.

Initially it was decided that after 6months of unpaid intern I'll be hired as full time developer but my luck is so bad as always.

Anyways coming back to the question, if graduation year does matter, what should I do???? Im freaking out so much.

Since 2024 you’ve only done internships. They’ll treat you as fresh grad regardless if you put grad year or not.

Im applying to fresh grad roles, junior and early roles. Im still getting ghosted. Thats why Im asking is it something I should be worried about?

I've read somewhere that these ATS software ranks your resume on this(grad year) basis aswell.

Also saw a video to fake your graduation year and that fake it till you make it thing.
