I know someone who has found some freelance work via Upwork, so that's a possibility if you just need an income. But I gather some skills, especially computer skills, are more in demand than others. Still, it might be worth checking that out, or other sites in the same niche.

If you are desperate for money, you should try looking for freelance work. It's better than nothing, but it won't be a stable income.

When I was fresh out of college and looking for work many years ago, I also supplemented my income by participating in research studies. Medical research pays the best, but you could be risking your health. If that's not your style, you can make money taking surveys and doing market research or mock trials.

Have you tried work from home jobs? Regarding interviews and interviewing, I have contacted employers after an interview to ask why I failed to secure the job. Most employers are forthright. It may be advantageous to ask these companies what gives?

Lucky you; every time I have requested feedback on the interview (from the small percentage of employers who don't ghost me), I have gotten nothing but silence in return.
