<human>: I am an experienced musician and audio engineer, to the point of music being essentially my life for the last 10+ years (I'm in my mid-twenties). I failed/dropped out of college, and changed my focus, went and received an associates in audio production. I graduated last year and have been having a majorly difficult time finding jobs in my field of interest. It's getting bad, I have debt and rent to pay, and have been subsisting off of my parents' good will for the last several years. I feel demeaned and helpless.

I don't want to pursue a shit job working part time for a big corporation for <$8/hr. There's very little good that could come out of this as I've been spending a lot of time grooming myself to be a high quality producer -- my goal is to eventually be the executive producer at a high-end studio.

I've lost faith in my school's career development center, they've literally been 0 help. They make me feel like because I can't find a job, it's my fault. When I ask about finding a job, they tell me not to look outside of my degree, but find a job within my degree hasn't been the most fruitful venture either. There aren't many advertised positions, and the types of jobs that the audio industry have are given to people who already receive work regularly.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: Over-qualified audio engineer can't get a job because apparently I don't have the experience needed to get experience. Advice?
