I don't have super helpful advice. I just wanted to mention I'm in a very similar situation. Graduated in 2018 got a diploma in web dev, started 2019, ended up WFH during the pandemic but I really want a way out of my current job as they're underpaying me.
I wish you the best of luck. I know it's stressful and scary. I try to remind myself that things have to work out because we keep trying. We have to put our best foot forward and at that point we have done everything we can. I try to remind myself that there's no point in worrying because we have no clue what could happen.
A coworker of mine was laid off twice in recent years but then ended up scoring a job where she barely has to work, is basically given free will to do whatever she wants as long as the work done. She actually complains about being bored during the day and I told her she should be having fun! Her works done and her job doesn't care what she does so she should be enjoying her life.
Long story short things sometimes work out far better than we could expect or forsee.
