Should I defer graduation or take a job now in this economy

I am a current senior and considering deferring a semester so I can recruit for fall 2024 full time jobs.

I am seeing a lot on the internet about the economy getting worst and worst. So should I just take a job like F500 corporate finance rather then recruiting for banking considering the economy may get worst?

the reason I do not currently have a full time offer is because I worked in tech and they did not give out returns this year.
