Hello all, I need some help. I'm about to graduate from school with a Bachelor's in Audio Engineering. I've been working occasionally as an Assistant Engineer at a couple studios around town, but I'm not on a stable schedule / don't make enough money from these gigs yet to afford my COL.
I'm looking for a job that would allow me to still have this inconsistent schedule, since I want to get into studio recording / engineering for artists (what I'm doing currently). I'm not opposed to other sides of the industry- I have experience in Live Events, Marketing, Graphic Design, etc etc. I'm bad at explaining things, but I just want to find a flexible job. Remote / On-site, I'm not opposed to anything, I just am hungry to work in what I studied for.
I'm wondering what you other engineers do for work outside of these gigs? What would you recommend a 23 year old recent college grad to do to break into this industry? Any help or advice is welcomed!
Thanks in advance!!
