  1. 1

    I'm in my late 20s and currently facing challenges in my job search. I graduated high school and briefly attended art college, but had to drop out due to financial issues. I later obtained a certificate in App Development, mainly for personal projects, from a community college. My work experience includes computer repair and using industrial machinery, with a strong passion for soldering and PCB design, which I've been doing for about 16 years. I'm open to a desk job as long as it aligns with my skills. I've also considered fields like networking, plumbing, HVAC, or electrical work, as I have some experience in household plumbing and networking. However, I'm unsure if I can secure an internship in those areas without attending trade school first. I'm ideally looking for a stable career, but my current living situation requires me to find a job that pays better than minimum wage (around $13 per hour). I'm now starting to explore positions that offer $20+ per hour, even if they come with significant challenges, to help me save money for a safer living situation.
