> If you have <2 years of experience and get laid off, you are neither new nor experienced. That seems like a tough sell.

I'm experiencing this. I've run into multiple junior (or new grad) positions that auto-disqualified my application because I graduated over 2 year ago. I'm less qualified for a junior position because I have some experience.

Hang in there. Every rejection is bringing you one step closer to your ultimate goal.

No, it's not.

If you consider that almost nobody gets a job without going through some rejection, it is. It's a stochastic process, and every interview is another roll of the dice.
