Should I stick to pursuing a career in Human Resources or shift gears and go back to college to get a bachelor's degree in computer science to try to become a software developer?

I graduated with a bachelor's degree and a 3.2 GPA ( the major is pretty much in government) about 2 and a half years ago and spent half of that time unemployed. I wanted to get a career in HR going but couldn't at first because I wasn't good at interviewing at the time (I'm better at interviewing now due to a lot of experience with it), currently unemployed now as my contract as an administrative assistant ended 3 months ago and we're in a recession/quarantine. I had 2 interviews but not offer. I'm contemplating getting a second bachelor's degree in computer science, will I have better luck finding a job as a software developer if I do this? (I would pursue an internship related to computer science while in college). Also I'll be 27 by the time I get the degree (at most I will have just turned 28 by the time I get it).

​

The reason I haven't fully decided to go back to college is because I don't really want to go back but I thought I would just apply to a couple universities while looking for work. That way if I end up getting an HR job and hating the career or not managing to land a job at all, I'll at least have college to fall back on again and shift careers into software development (I dabbled in coding about 2 years ago because I wanted to be an independent game developer on the side and found it challenging, but also interesting), only problem is I know I could go back to college and graduate but still not have a job afterwards.
