How does one completely change careers?
I genuinely have no idea what I want to do, but what I do know is that I'm totally burnt out in my current job and feel like I'm getting less than nothing out of it at this point.
I've been in retail & retail banking for 7+ years and it's time for a change, but I feel totally stuck in my situation. School isn't an option for me right now.
I`m in the middle of doing it right now. What I was told was when undertaking something like this that I`ll need to prepare myself understanding that looking for a Full Time career in a different field is a full time job so Mrs Odaat and I cut some things from our expenses, I threw the towel in on the Hospitality career and I attended a ton of really great workshops with a local Employment Agency which qualified me for a program which offers potential employers a subsidy of $10,000-$15,000 if they were to hire me.
I`m just waiting on the document so I can present it to potential employers to arrive in the mail any day. It`s a bit frightening making "the switch" but I was done in my business, tired of being my age (really old
) and still living the life of getting home at 1am.
Good luck, you can do this, check all resources in your area, I`d be shocked if there wasn`t a government funded program that offers this same type of option that I just qualified for, my caseworker calls the document "The Game Changer"
