I’ve been unemployed for almost a year after moving to Silicon Valley for my husband’s job. I have a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering (3.5 GPA), 3 years of internships (studied and interned simultaneously), and 10 months of engineering work experience. Despite applying with a resume, cover letter, and portfolio, I keep hitting dead ends. I'm going to local networking events and not getting anywhere with that either.
Is there a strategy that actually works in this market? I'm at my wit's end.
