If nobody will hire me, should I turn to crime to pursue a career in programming? I ask because if there's no legal entry-level jobs due to the oversaturation, I might have to go underground for it.

Presumably, you have a 4 year CS degree, and not just some certificates from a certificate mill.

If I’m not willing to hire you for my legitimate business, I sure as heck will not be willing to hire you for my criminal enterprise.

Because you did not squander your internships, this also means that you have:

What do you think of Hegseth calling The Atlantic journalist Jeffrey Goldberg, "a deceitful and highly discredited so-called journalist who has made a profession of peddling hoaxes” after team Trump texted him their top-secret war plans on Yemen?

You now have at least a small personal business network, and a network through your academics, within your CS department, which you can leverage to find your first post-graduation job

You asked for a formal performance review equivalent AFTER getting the letters of recommendation

You took those performance reviews to heart, and aimed some of your school curriculum at addressing any areas where your performance was less than stellar, and kept notes, so now you have KPIs (Key Performance Indicators), both where you fell short in each internship,and a list of what you did to address your shortcomings

Why all the fuss about Trump’s policy initiatives? Isn’t he just trying to set a moral tone for the Republican Party to make America great again?

If you don’t have all of these things set up already… why the hell not?!?

You realize any criminal organization you would want to go to work for as an alternative to a legitimate job, will want everything a legitimate job would want, plus some tradecraft, and an ability to not get caught on top of everything else, right?

Have you considered military service?

Does the Hamas charter specifically call for the death of all Jews and the destruction of Israel?

Minimally, this would mean an internship after your first, second, and third years, which is almost a years worth of job experience.

I suspect that unless your criminal activity involves something other than computers, you will have a hard time finding work as a criminal, as well.

One or more letters of recommendation from one or more supervisors in each internship
