Where do I go from here?

I am a college senior who did not have much luck throughout the last few months of the consulting recruiting cycle. I networked, prepped, and studied a ton, but either wasn't able to secure interviews or make it past the first round. Now that it seems that hiring is pretty much all over, do you have any advice on where to go from here? Is it even possible to still get a consulting role in 2024? If not, are there any industries that you would recommend?
