After being unemployed for 9 months, I've come to realize my mistake of pursuing education without a clear career goal. I earned my Bachelor’s in Vocal Performance in 2021, and then went on to get a Master’s in Applied History, which I graduated with on May 8th. Unfortunately, I'm struggling to find jobs related to my degree. The only positions I see available are for museum directors, which I definitely don’t qualify for. With mounting rent, bills, and student debt, I feel like I'm at my breaking point. I was promised job opportunities upon graduation, but now I feel foolish for not choosing a career path first. My dad is trying to help financially, but with each passing day without an interview or job offer, my depression deepens. Is it really that pathetic for a 28-year-old with a Master’s degree to be endlessly scrolling through job listings on Indeed, searching for a basic full-time position? Has anyone else faced a similar situation? I’m feeling lost and unsure of where to go from here.
