Geniunely need help:Seems like nothing is going my way and almost at breaking point

Sorry for the long wall of text and poor formatting(typed this on my phone) I’ve tried to keep this as brief as I could 

TLDR: I have tried my level best for the last 4 years yet Life is fucking with me, Cannot get a single interview, applying online is useless.

I’m 21, Have been on WSO since I was 16, Grew up In Dubai(UAE) then went back to my home country for college, Growing up I always excelled in Academics and sports but due to financial reasons(Covid) I had to go back to my home country instead of a university in UK/USA like most of my friends did. i have recently come back to UAE, to look for a job. Due to personal family reasons I need to stay here.

I knew going back to my home country meant I would  probably not get a good job here due to My university not being well known(It is one of the top Universities in my state though) and fierce competition so I decided to start working at the age of 18 to hopefully get an edge over other applicants.

I Finished my B.com and am halfway through my ACCA(7/13)exams, Along with this in the 3 years I was there, I worked FULL TIME jobs for 2 years and 4 months in Consulting and Corporate advisory at an audit firm.

I have created a one page resume using standard finance templates, made it ATS ready, gotten it reviewed by Chatgpt, Grok etc. I spoke to a friend of mine from school who works at a Big 4 in UAE and he told me at his firm junior level employees are primarily hired by emiratization programmes or Wasta, He got hired through Wasta as well. Wasta is basically a form of nepotism and is extremely common in the middle east.

I have tried reaching out to people on LinkedIn/E-mail hoping for a coffee chat or something similar but my response rate is very low, I have personalized My messages and tried to follow all the suggestions mentioned on WSO.

I have been hustling as best as I can while dealing with problems in my life over the last 4 years, It’s not been easy but I’ve pretty much been working 7am-9pm all this time and studying for a professional qualification(ACCA) on the side. Now i feel like I have wasted the prime years of my life.

 During college a lot of girls asked me out on dates, But I always said no because I was busy trying to make a career, looking back on those times now just breaks something inside me, I never had any fun when I was supposed to, never drank alcohol or even tried a cigarette. I don’t think I have been happy for more than 10 days total in the last 5 years(since covid).

I’m open to working an internship to prove myself or even working for free to gain experience, I do not care about prestige, I would give anything to work a back office role in finance or consulting as a way to break in.

Reflecting on myself I have become very defeatist in my attitude also a little jealous of some of my friends who are doing good in their career(IB at GS, MBB) everyday I wake up all I can think of is WHY ME? i should have been in their position.

There Is only one silver lining left which is I will obtain a bachelors degree from a college in the UK( Oxford Brookes University) by march of next year which should better my job prospects a lot.

If you have read this far, Thank you and if anyone works in UAE, or has worked here in the past and has any advice for me, Please let me know.
