Is landing a job at 24 going to be difficult

Hey people, I will be graduating in May with a Bachelors's in Finance. I am unsure whether or not I want to go for my Master's yet. I would like to if a job would help me pay for it. I am going to be 24 by the time that I graduate. I apply to a ton of jobs and always cannot check off the spot where it says "Have you completed your Bachelors" and I always get upset about that. Seeing a lot of my friends land jobs and me not is also getting to me. I have a 3.6 GPA right now, and would really like to get into a bank doing either investment banking or becoming an analyst of some sort, just to get my feet wet in the corporate world. Any advice is appreciated.
