Struggling to Secure IT Employment: A Desperate Search for Hope

Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I'm reaching out today because I'm finding it incredibly challenging to land my first job in the IT field. Despite my efforts, securing a position has been tough, and I have debts to pay off.If anyone here works at one of the Big 4 or any tech firm (like Capgemini, cognizant, etc.) and could offer a referral for any of the fresher positions, like associate or analyst or trainee or consultant, etc. I would be immensely grateful. Your support could make a huge difference in kick-starting my career. Thank you.

I want to share my experience as a fresher at Accenture, my first company from a college placement. The first six months were fine, but then I faced severe mental harassment from my supervisor and manager. She constantly criticized my work and gave negative feedback, causing me immense stress. I often skipped meals and worked weekends to improve, but nothing helped. Despite reporting the issue and requesting a supervisor change or a different track, my requests were ignored. The harassment worsened, affecting my physical health, and I couldn't eat or sleep properly. My manager controlled trivial aspects like where to sit and whom to talk to, making the situation unbearable. I was even forced to switch from a developer role to a tester, despite being trained as a developer. The final straw was being placed on a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) without a clear reason, with the same harassing individuals assessing me. I only had 1.9 years of experience then. I reported the mental harassment to HR and resigned due to deteriorating health, panic attacks, and weight loss. Despite having no other job offer, I couldn't continue. Even during my notice period, I was forced to complete PIP assignments, which led to suicidal thoughts and further health issues. Now, I am jobless, feeling helpless and frustrated. With less than 2 of experience, I struggle to find offers in a down IT market and don't know what to do next.

Hi! I am a 2019 CS passout and after engineering worked in my family business in mechanical sector as a sales executive. I am no longer interested in this field and thinking to shift to IT by relearning MERN. 1)Currently i am 27 YO so is it too late to join IT as most people of my age are senior devs/tech leads? 2)Will IT industry(startups/MNCs) accept me with no prior experience in dev as compared to recent passouts? If you’ll could advise me it would be of great help.
