Are you autistic? I am ugly and dumb but got a decent job at a fortune 100 just by getting a degree that sounds fancy from a decent school.

Jesus. You arent going to like this, but you are going to have to walk in, grab a broom, and just start sweeping. Work your way up, impress your boss, and be the first one to show up, last one to leave.

You measured your whole life by the standards of the education system. Hard to blame you, since your mom and teachers probably told you that you just need to stay in line and meet the expectations they put on you to succeed in life. What's happening now is that you're discovering they were wrong.

Homie I have worked with several people from Cornell. They leveraged their alumni network to get jobs.

Have you tried hitting up LinkedIn? Also I know there are a lot of Cornell alumni in big cities like NYC. Location might be your issue. Better shot in a place like Manhattan or DC , Boston.

Let me know if you need any help or advice. That’s awesome you have a CS degree. I think you’d be surprise how much it helps to have that background when you are in the workforce
