Need some advice regarding career like just stuck and thinking about alot what actually I want to do ?

Career

I am pre-final IT student!

I explored lots of stuff and I think computer network, network security is the one which fascinates me or its intresting for me ( I don't like software development or maybe competitive coding)

My target/aim right now is to get into a network engineer role , also I am interested in cloud engineering or cloud roles that is also one niche I like to study

Currently I am stuck with what my career should be ?

I don't how to crack cisco job or cloud jobs in AWS , AZURE or GCP etc

I don't want to waste my time I got just 2 years !(Or maybe less)

I already have college subjects to study and pass

If you ask me what I have done till now then I would say I have learnt foundational level regarding computer networks did Cisco packet tracer labs etc also learnt practitioner level of AWS cloud

I have not any time to DSA because I hate competitive coding it just feels stupid idk why

And maybe due to AI too

I have used AI assistance coding I have given like 6-7 hackathons

I made Every project using AI I never do coding I am just the guy who plans or bring ideas do research or more like a product Engineer

Idk were it will take me so I don't want to waste time I don't know what I should do / study at this time ?

The pressure is real because coming from tier 3 college I have seen many students graduate without any placement!

And I don't want to among those

I have been desperately trying to get any opportunity anything I tried to get job in startups I applied a lot but got rejected!

I have that Product Engineer mindest I have that curiosity I have that creativity but some how due to my college the location were this college is I don't have different opportunities!

Hmm ok anyone got any suggestions plz ?
