My previous employer cut all the contracts leaving me to find a new role.

I was not in that role long enough to gain enough experience to find a similar role and it was a career change.

I estimate I put in over 750 applications and got maybe 7 interviews out of it.

My CV basically matched the job description for a few roles but was told no.

It's rough out there, I had to take the first offer as my bank account was basically gone. I'm now earning less than I did 10 years ago and of course rent and prices have gone up. Going to be a rough few years.
