Currently hate my company. I have a degree in civil engineering (graduated in 19) and do not have my FE, do not plan on obtaining. I am pushed into roles I express I do not enjoy and have no work/life balance. Looking for job opportunities in cost estimating (I have no experience) or key client account manager (no experience). Open to other suggestions (maybe sales) that would make me happier. Hoping to match my 75k salary or more. Thanks

Where are you located?

I would still apply because sometimes projects/companies are desperate to fill roles so you just have to be at the right place at the right time. And work on marketing your experience to make it relevant to estimating. It’s all about assigning unit rates and then benchmarking your assumptions against historical data. What business line are you in?

I'm not good at my tech stack. I've somehow managed to perform all my tasks without any escalation/blunders but that also by some help/googling.
I also managed to switch from an Indian mnc to a reputed company and now also somehow cleared a FAANG interview,but i know I'm not much knowledgeable in my tech .

I often fail at some interviews badly.
Not sure till when I'll be able to carry forward by this and the hard wlb at FAANG companies is giving me a fear.
