Good afternoon everyone

I am a recent graduate of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. I graduated with an M.S. in Aeronautics, specializing in Space Operations. Ever since I graduated in May 2023, I have had a hard time trying to get into the Aerospace/ Defense industry. I have always wanted to go to Space ever since I was a kid, and now, with the Artemis program in full swing. I want to be a part of it and make my future working on the space program and to continue my education to be a professor at a university. I am open to the Defense as well as long it involves Space. What is a way I can get in? I reside in Florida but am open to relocating across the country.

I hope this is the right place for this. Also, I am almost in my 40s. I really want a future, I am working in retail and want to move on from there and make my future happen with Aerospace (Space Sector).
