I am in the second category unfortunately and I cry every day feeling like a complete failure. Will it ever get better?
Like your parents tell you do this. And you don’t do it and u think of how they will react and then you prepare an appropriate response for when they question you. Any stories like that?
Depending on where I get a job, i might have to move to a new city and live on my own. I live with my parents currently. It’s common in my culture to live with parents until you get married. I have never lived by myself not even in college.
I really do want to move out but I am afraid of what might happen. When i get interviews for a role in a new city, first thing i search up is the city’s crime rate and if it’s high, which it usually is, as bigger cities have better job opportunities which tend to have more crime.
How do I get over this fear? Like I know that terrible things u see in movies and tv shows doesn’t happen all the time but it does happen.
I have applied for jobs in many different states that I qualify for making sure my resume has all the keywords, but I get auto rejected. Is this because recruiters prefer candidates who live locally and can start immediately? I really wanna move out of my parents’ house and live in a new city, but i hardly ever get interviews for roles in other states. I am even open to relocating without any assistance. How do people get jobs in a state that they don’t currently live in?
I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in psychology couple years ago. Then I was unemployed for a bit and then did a year long internship at a company in consumer insights. Internship ended recently but i still cant find a job in this field. I have been getting interviews but no offers. Is it me or is the field just very competitive? I am also trying to get better at interviewing. It doesn’t help that consumer insights is such a niche field that there aren’t too many job postings. What other jobs titles should i look into?
