I recently finish a B.S. on Architecture and my graduation is on May, 2012. I have been accepted on BAC for a Master on Architecture I will start it next fall. I have been looking, hunting and searching for a job in an architectural firm for over a year. I have multiple webpage where I look for job every day, I received job alerts every day and I go to different architectural firm webpage and whenever they post jobs that I am qualified for I apply, but they never get back to me. Now, my question is: is there any future in Architecture??? I am asking this, because when I finally find a job post it requires 5 to 10 years of experience. I can see any future in this career if there is not chance to inexperience talent when we do not have the opportunity to get experience.
I currently working on a engineering company creating BIM 3D models. The job is not bad at all, but at the end, will this job experience creating BIM 3D models payoff to get a job or an internship within an architectural firm? I love architecture since I remember, but if I will not have a chance to became license architect, is it worth to owe 100k on students loans and spend all the time that study architecture requires? Right now I am very disappointed I will definitively finish my M.arch, but we recently graduated architecture students really need the opportunity within the field and not just for us for the career itself.
A career that does not get fresh air with new talents, new ideas and new points of view, will have any future? Most of my classmates are looking for job and just the 5% have a job in architectural firm, 10% got a NOT pay internship. I CANNOT afford to work for free paying gas, rent , food while I am working for free and all Spence that will result from a M.arch.
However, Architecture is the most beautiful career I have ever seem and I DO NOT regret all the time I have spent on it and the time I will spend on it. I will finish my M.Arch no matter what. Even when I will be the last man stand in a death end regarding getting experience. At the end all I am wonder: Is there any future in Architecture???

Are you blaming your unhappiness on your ethnicity?

Ha ha. What a question. Just believe in yourself and you can do anything. This is not rocket science. You grab and pull it.

Spam like the above makes worry that the dystopian future of AI isn't going to be superpowered computers outthinking us and manipulating mankind into fighting proxy wars, it's going to be an issue of inane garbage flooding out every bit of space around the infrequent useful information. It's going to be like the pacific garbage patch for your brain.

You're projecting this small setback in your own life as a problem with the world.
As long as human beings keep moving in and out of buildings, there will always be a demand for architectural services. Exactly how much demand there is will continue to change / fluctuate depending on markets and technology, but humans will always need to continue make adjustments to the built environment.
So you don't have any experience. Yeah...We've all been there. Eventually you'll find an opportunity for a fresh graduate with no experience. Then you can start.
The only difference between those who succeed and those who fail: Those who succeed are the people who didn't let all their previous failures stop them.
