I’ve been on a challenging job search journey lately, having submitted over 1000 applications in hopes of landing a remote position. I’m 34 years old with a Bachelor’s in Computer Science, but my professional experience is quite limited. For the past 14 years, I’ve worked as a professional musician, and while I’ve had some success, things have been tough recently. I also have experience as a warehouse manager, a music instructor, and I’ve spent the last four years as a video editor. Unfortunately, none of this seems to translate well into the tech roles I’m applying for. After the birth of my daughter in May and losing my biggest video editing client shortly after, I’ve been desperate to find a stable job that allows me to be home with my family. However, the only responses I’ve received so far have been scams. I’ve revised my resume multiple times to make it more appealing to AI filters and have applied through various job sites, but to no avail. I’m reaching out for advice on whether there are any courses or certifications that could help me break into a career-centered job, as I’m hesitant to spend a lot of money on something that might not make a difference due to my lack of professional experience. I just want to leverage my degree and build a stable life for my daughter. I’m considering taking seasonal delivery work with UPS as a temporary solution while I continue my search.
