If you're starting out now, maybe look at a smaller company and try big tech later. Most big tech has a hiring freeze for non-senior positions.
Anything with the word "new grad" that will hire you for the specific career path you want. Get your foot in the door. Once you have a few offers in hand then pick between
1) drop any and all notions of being picky and apply to literally everything. 6 months experience at a no-name place as a SWE is better than 6 months experience as a job hunter. 2) pick a language/specialty and stick with it. Entry level aims at being a master of one; worry about full stack when you are becoming a senior engineer. 3) practice your leetcode and CS fundamentals daily. You don’t have to solve hards or even 5 per day, you just need daily reps. Reps are everything. 4) apply to a new job every day and keep a spreadsheet of jobs you applied to. Add a company a day. It’s a numbers game.

In this market join anything you can find, small/startup are good because you’ll wear a lot of different hats and learn a lot, but on the flip side there’ll be less structure.
