Career after university

Hi, I am new on here so please be nice lol. But I should be graduating this July and I still have no idea what career I would like to go into. I'm 25 and feel like I'm tooo old to be at this stage of not knowing what to do. I have done an undergrad in Criminological and Forensic Psychology and wondered what routes I could go down? I would love to work with the youth but unsure.

Do you have a personal tutor at uni you can talk to for advice or even the careers team? If it helps, I graduated from Psychology in 2018 and no idea what I wanted to do so did a masters in tourism and events, then worked in marketing for the last 5 years and STILL don't know what I want to do so don't feel pressured to have a plan as sometimes just going with the flow ends up working best.

Unforunately talking to my PT is kindda like talking to a brick wall lol. And that does somewhat make me feel better. Like I'm trying new jobs and feel no joyment out of them. Thought it was just me. I do find forensics exciting but where I live its hard to get even a normal job. But thanks a lot for the reassurance!
