What’s the best way to break into the cybersecurity field as an international student with 9 months of studying cybersecurity experience, 500+ job applications, and an ongoing Security+ certification?

Hi everyone, I’ve been studying cybersecurity for the past 9+ months and actively applying to internships and entry-level roles, with over 500 applications and 250+ LinkedIn connections so far. A few connections helped with referrals, but my resume still gets rejected. Last month, I felt devastated and started doubting myself. But I gathered courage and started preparing for CompTIA Security+ to strengthen my foundation. I’ve optimized my resume for ATS, participated in CTFs, and improved my LinkedIn, but I’m still struggling to land interviews. Can someone please guide me? What is the right approach to land my first cybersecurity internship/job? What specific skills or certifications helped you get your first break? How do I know if I’m "job-ready"? Should I focus on one company or keep applying everywhere? Any tips, encouragement, or actionable steps would mean the world. 🙏 Thank you!
