I kept looking for a job or work after I graduate but I have no connections or sources to find photography related job or work in NYC. Both Indeed and Linkedin werent useful to find jobs or works at all. What should I do?

You might have to broaden your search beyond NYC to get some experience?

Congratulations on your impending graduation.

You might start with alumni and alumnae from your school, both recent and old enough to be well established. Before that, though, get very specific about exactly what you mean by "photography related" and the skills and accomplishments you offer.

If you want a stern challenge, post your resume or even better your curriculum vitae to this thread with names and other personal details obscured. You will likely get some fine advice but, if your work is sloppy be prepared.

Very, very few decent jobs jump up and offer themselves online.

start assisting established photographers, that is the best way to get your foot in the door. Assist while shooting personal work on your free time to build a portfolio. You can simply just email working photographers or use school connection. Photography assistants working on commercial jobs make anywhere from $150-$400 day!
