Hi, joined this website because I’m officially lost in life.
I’ve spent 2 years on 3 separate university courses ( illustration, game art, designer maker ) and neither of them clicked, I’m out of UCAS funding to find another potential course and complete the 3 years for a BA degree.
I feel lost- being in education has been a huge part of my life and routine, so suddenly living with my parents and being both out of work and education feels like such a blow to my ego, I’m not sure what the next steps for me are?
I’m 21, autistic and specialise mostly in art, but studied advertising, psychology and history- does anyone have any advice for what I should do next? I can’t seem to find any job availabilities and when I do I can never make the interview land right, any help?
Welcome! I'm sorry you're feeling lost.
I'm guessing you would say art is what you really enjoy, but you're probably open to other avenues? I wish I had an answer (as I've been out of work for a while) but do you have any contacts from university who might be able to help?
Ooh possibly, my teachers did mention that networking was a very big factor of getting a job in the art industry so I’ll give them a shout : ) thank you
