After my first year of college, set out onto the world to find interships and part time work. Ngl i already knew internships aren't really gonna be very likely since im still a freshman so I applied for what seems to be 10-15 different part time jobs. Man... I got ghosted by nearly all of them lmao... there's like 2-3 companies that sent rejection letters (im thankful for these btw at least the closure gave me the idea that i can actually apply somewhere else) but the others didnt even give out any kind of notices after 2-3 weeks... is this normal? it genuinely hurts like hell and ive gone mental thinking if I should keep applying or wait for those jobs I applied in to respond because they were good jobs that I can serve as like alternate experience from internships... god man what has this world gone to? I dunno if my CV sucks or Im actually just unlikeable haha... i hope it gets better, I dont wanna work at retail anymore, terrible TERRIBLE experience... Im losing my hairs by the minute...

Thinking of saving money for mainly, house of course. Giving myself at least 5-6 year time. I planned on doing a CD ladder. Thoigh if I want to have a place where I can just put money in and save (not necessarily not being able to open it but just for the sake of saving extra income) should I open a savings account for that? My parents told me savings account aren't really that beneficial. Im quite young still, early 20s and I have a pretty bad touch when it comes to managing my money since I dont have the knowledge where I can put where and when. Thank you in advance. Im pretty frugal so right now my moeny is just sitting. I have some aside for one CD but thay really isn't much. Any help is appreciated. I know this post might be confusing since im not necessarily touching on anything specifics but please just give me a little guide on savings tips and how I can do that (proliferate them of course despite staying untouched thank you)
