[I made a request for job finding suggestions. I didn’t really want to leave details lying around indefinitely, to be honest, so, after a week, I edited it to this.]
For job searching, focus less on sending out applications and more on asking [professors | friends | friends of friends | mentors | parents | parents’ friends] if they know of anyone who’s hiring for [relevant field]. When they say no, ask if they know anyone else you should talk to. To generalize from one example, every job I’ve ever worked has come from some sort of connection. I found my current position through my mom’s dance instructor’s husband.
For figuring out what to do with your long-term future, there’s not much I can say without knowing your goals, but http://80000hours.org/ might or might not be relevant. If so, they’re willing to advise you one-on-one.
