Lost, Need Advice

I'm a recent graduate from a target school in the northeast and was unable to secure a job at this point. For background, I had a 3.9 gpa, previous internship at an EB (private capital advisory), and other relevant finance internships (wealth/asset management). I have had some success networking but it seems everyone I speak to tells me that they wish they could help but its too late in the cycle. What should my next steps be?
