I really need to find a new job.
My office job is convenient. It’s 3 miles away from home, office hours - great, but it’s so boring and the pay isn’t good and I work hard. We have no pay rises, not even any staff reviews and no where to go in the small company. I am struggling to pay for the horses and really want to find something new.
I have a lot of experience in roles but no ‘uni’ degree as I always put my hobby (horses) first and wanted a full time job just to fund them therefore uni was out of the question. Stupid me, maybe? Mmm.
I have applied to a load of jobs, I have good experience and ‘proof’ I could do that role (proof of sales increases etc) with my current role being the same but all they are interested in is ‘does she have a degree’ no? Okay not interested. A few have even put that on the email.
My brother is younger, he has just got a degree, he has no experience in any workplace and got tons of interviews in roles not even related to his degree or had any experience. The role he took again not related to his degree, all they cared about was that degree.
Has anyone got a good job without a degree? It use to be about experience in a role.. now it feels like I could be amazing at marketing or selling with stats to prove it but they aren’t bothered if I dont have a degree. I’m 23 and have so many outgoings I can’t see I could do uni now!
