Liam Smith has a degree in physics from a top university – but despite applying for “hundreds” of jobs since his graduation two years ago, he remains without full-time work.
The 23-year-old from Lincolnshire, who dreams of working in renewable energy, says he feels “exhausted and drained” from the process of trying to find employment.
Liam has struggled to get his foot in the door despite starting to apply for roles before he even finished his studies at the University of Sheffield in 2024.
He’s sent applications for roles all over the UK, and has thrown his hat into the ring for a huge range of possible opportunities – not just in the field he wants to work in.
But he says he’s still had no luck finding anything permanent.
