what do I even do? how the absolute fuck do people even get jobs? I'm sure the average posting on Indeed has 200+ applicants.

You're literally competing with hundreds of other faggots for every position
It's oversaturated as fuck.

Just keep on applying. It's painfully boring but you'll find something eventually. Also I find that cover letters improve your chances slightly so maybe add one to your applications. Just make a template cover letter and change the date, company name, and whatever else.

Contribute to open source projects. You need experience. In this industry college degrees are increasingly worthless. They care more about your work history and what skills you have. Not just programming concepts, but actual practical skills. Have you ever lead a team of engineers before? Have you ever worked on a large enterprise system? Do you know git? What processes are you familiar with? Are you certified in any languages or technologies? AWS? Java? .Net? Have you ever done agile development? Do you have experience in consulting? Do you know how to manage expectations when dealing with non-technical people?
And so on.

I'm a software engineer, will have to interview three people for engineering positions this week.
put your resume on all of the different job websites like Monster and Indeed. Try to find a recruiter. Make sure to follow up with the places you applied by calling or emailing 2-3 weeks after your application. Try to ask anyone you know (they don't have to be an engineer) if they can recommend you at their workplace for for an engineering position.
What city are you in? What's your GPA?
