No SA offer (London)

I’m at a non-target in London in my second year. Since SA positions first started to open I’ve only managed to gain 2 interviews (which I didn’t do well in btw), like honestly between the rejections and people posting up their offers on LinkedIn I’ve been taking it pretty bad. I’m starting to question myself etc. (And I’ve been having dark thoughts as well) really though I’ve been trying to put as much time as I can filling out my applications but I just can’t seem to get it right!! Maybe it’s me idk I just hate this tbh. I’m spending most of my time on the computer browsing most of the week in a small single room in a shared house with little human contact each week, honestly it’s so depressing man
