Graphic Design Market Overcrowded?

It feels like every day there's a flood of new designers, making it harder for beginners to even get noticed, let alone land a gig. The competition is fierce, and with so many offering similar services, it's tough to stand out.

Any tips on how newbies can break through in this oversaturated space?
