For Hire 2026 B.Tech grad. Don't know where to start, could really use some help.
Hey ,
I'm a 2026 B.Tech Computer Engineering graduate, and honestly, I'm going through a pretty rough phase in life right now.
I'm unemployed, struggling with depression, and feeling extremely lost about what to do next. I see people moving ahead with their careers while I'm struggling to even get started.
I don't really know why I'm posting this, but I thought I'd try my luck here.
I know Java, have done some Android development, and know a little bit of web development. I've worked on college projects, but honestly, I don't feel confident in my skills right now, and I have a lot left to learn.
I'm not here asking anyone to hand me a fancy job or anything. I just wanted to ask if someone here could help me find a starting point.
Maybe you have some small tasks I could help with, some basic work I could do, or a project where I could contribute and learn along the way. Maybe you're a freelancer or a developer who could use an extra pair of hands.
Even if it's something that pays ₹5,000 a month, I'd be grateful. I just want to start somewhere, learn useful things, earn a little, and get out of this rut I'm stuck in.
I'm honestly tired of feeling like I'm doing nothing with my life, and right now, even a little direction or an opportunity to learn from someone would mean a lot.
If you have any advice, know someone I could reach out to, or can think of any way I could get started, please let me know.
I know this is a little unconventional, but I figured there's no harm in asking.
Thanks for reading. ❤️
