Fucked up my career what to do

Graduated from a Tier 1 MBA, got into a rando role very early on during placement (think Day0). Totally messed up job change during covid (pay reduction), and suffered more with family issues. I am probably earning a lot lesser than my average batchmate, and not at a good designation (or skills) either. Trying to get back on track with my career via consulting or Category role in startups. Need advice on how to get there. Getting rejected by most consulting cos (even big4) and startups on online portals while applying.

Can you name your college? As tier 1 MBA have a strong network
Do the following

  1. Make 3 resumes - consulting, startup (growth initiates), FMCG / Conglomerates
  2. Send the resume to alumni in top 3-5 firms in each category
  3. Wait
  4. If this dosen’t work move to next 5-6 firms in each category (avoid Edtech, gaming sector for now in startup)
  5. Be patient & pray to god. The economy is at the lowest now, hence will take some time to get better
    You can combine 3&5 as well, or 5 first and 3 next

Why should we not aim at gaming sector. Companies like Winzo pay well.
