International graduate still unemployed after 6 months of job hunting in Singapore

I'm an international student who graduated back in June 2020; after half a year of job hunting, I still haven't received any positive news. This is my first time being unemployed for so long. I previously worked part-time while doing my degree and also undertook 4 internships - of which two lasted 6 months each.

Although I can totally appreciate the point of instituting the SGUnited traineeship program to give locals a much needed leg-up as well as comprehend the measures rolled out by the Singapore government to curb hiring of foreigners, I feel so lost. At present a huge study loan debt looms, this alongside an unfulfilled government bond that I seriously don't know how to contend with. I have been relying on my parents who wire me money to survive one day at a time thus far in one of the world's most expensive nations so that I can continue job hunting.

Can't you go back to your house for a while? Maybe you can find a job at home and pay off the loan. I think it will be easier because, in this situation, I see this way out. You can see it here https://www.becomeopedia.com/freight-broker/ more information. On this site, there are excellent tips on how to start working in a particular field and ways to make it a reality. I perfectly understand what position you are in. During my student days, I also did not have much money, and my opportunities were limited. I hope that you will soon find a solution to this problem. I wish you good luck.
