I'm going to graduate with a Comp Sci degree in December. Unfortunately, the tech market is utter trash right now, and despite the fact that I have had two internships, I doubt I will be able to land a job.
What should I do? Get some McJob or try to move into something else?
Luckily I inherited about 520k from a family member (all in stocks) so I can use that if necessary but I don't want to if possible

You'll find a job, but it doesn't matter because other disciplines will hire you in the meantime, anon. You can do this. Remember to go to your school's job fair.

You make computer chips for Intel.

What do you do now?
If you're lucky, McDonalds will accept your job application. Good luck, hope this helps!

1) Finish your degree, a lot of places will take anyone with *any* degree, it's important to have just any degree as opposed to dropping out, also you're very close to finishing anyway so just finish.
2) Your two internships are a good start for experience, but after you graduate I'd search your connections to see if someone can hook you up with a job. Right now EVERYTHING is fucked, people are getting rejected from fucking McDonald's because some AI somewhere fucked up, so your best bet is to lean on your network. As someone in SWE, I think the whole field is fucked right now. Even if you get a job, if you're not Indian someone will eventually fuck you over.
