    actually you guys might be able to help me.....

    i'm looking for a career change... i currently work in admin (which is boring, too repetitive for me!) I've got a degree in marketing and business management for ive been graduated two years and not doing anything for me.

    i'm looking for something with a bit of variation but still has sometype of framework too it. i dont mind working outside, im good with computers, im willing to learn new skills (as long as its not too expsensive it has to be dfw-ish!), i like making things (although they dont always turn out brilliantely.) i love animals.....

    I need something thats gonna give me a much better income that what im on (just short of 15K) and idealy i'd love to work for myself but its obviously needs to be something secure-ish to support my debt repayments....

    does anyone have ANY ideas??? i'm struglling so ALL ideas gratfully recieved!:confused:

    have you thought of talking to a career guidance councillor (bad spelling) person they might come up with some ideas
    umm what about graduate placement schemes? you'd qualify for these and only last 6 months to a year so could help you find your niche.

    thanks ciara:o i havent spoken to a career person not really sure where to look for one! have tried graduate schemes but my grades weren't good enought to get onto them :eek: to be honest i hated my degree so much i'd rather stay away from management/marketing stuff.

    oooh something else i didnt mention - i want something reletively stress free. i've suffered from depression in the last few years, my mums had to give up her job due to depression and my dad is currently off with stress! all this has made me not want to be part of the rat race!!


    oooh i know what your all thinking...im picky:p
