Unemployed during COVID-19

Hi Everybody,
I'm currently working as an outsource in Rapid Metro as Technical Assistant/Civil. I earned a Master degree in Water Resource Engineer after B.Tech in Civil Engineering. Due to Covid 19 I took job back in Civil sector even though I have a masters degree in WRE. It's been almost 6 months of constant applying and rejection and still I'm nowhere close to a job in my dream branch which is the Water sector.Im hopeful that through this portal I may find an entry level position in water

I have found it easier to manage meetings and be confident when there are physical barriers between the other participants and I. I have more space literally and figuratively.

I pretend not to be able to use video due to poor internet connection 😂
I can switch off video and make funny faces for client's weird questions.... Such confidence boost
I personally found it much easier in video call than actual meeting. Clients, my managers, my team all feel much closer. Just a little hi and a big smile there is already some sort of connection, or at least I know even if I were extrovert this is the best I can do.
I’m definitely not comfortable during meetings with video on, and rather have a meeting without, then yes I do feel more confident because I can talk without thinking about what to do with my whole body (am I blushing? Am I sitting in a weird position? Do I look confident? Am I interacting ok with my eyes? Etc.)
