Live with parents, get any job. Search for better job.

I feel you. Graduated in Cognitive Science at a uni, and have been unable to find a job since last June. Working at an amazon prime facility stowing and bagging trying to get on my feet again.

Don't stop learning OP. If you're still looking for engineering jobs, try to take online classes, even if it's just review. Do projects in your (ample) spare time that show you're genuinely interested and still using your brain. It will give you a solid answer when an interviewer asks what you've been doing since graduation.

Hey me too! It's rough, but at least we know all about the cerebellum.
Do you have ANY work experience? Or are you one of those people who thought that a STEM degree was enough, and now that you have a degree you're too good to work a wageslave job?

Keep job hunting but at the same time take a couple of Business courses, like Management, to sex up your cv

Are you ready to move after a job? My friend (English literature major) just moved 600 kilometers away as he got an executive director position in a hotel.

Make sure your CV is customized for the job type you seek and has some color or any feature that distinguishes it from the grey mass. Make one CV for pure engineering jobs, one for closely related jobs, one for jobs that benefit from any academic skills (manager / dev positions, for example). Send the proper CV with a good covering note to every possible industry in your area.
Or: if you have a jack-of-all-trades CV and some experience, just make an interesting covering note, add CV as attachment and send your open application across the country to all possible employers. Use blind carbon copy (BCC) field in email to hide the fact that you are sending the same message to hundreds of places.
