I’m going on a year without luck finding stable work in my field of study (graduated in 2021 with a Bachelors in English Rhetoric & Professional Writing). For the last two years I’ve worked a full time job at Target. However I’m looking to transition to a fully remote position. If anyone has any advice or roles that might fit my skill set, I’d be so appreciative!

My skills: Editing, CMS Systems, Wordpress, Microsoft Office Suite, Metadata optimization, SEO optimization.

Unless you're trying to set yourself up for a freelance job, you may want to adjust your expectations. Fully work-from-home jobs are disappearing. The few that are left are very competitive. Hybrid or fully in-office roles are much more common.

If i were you, I'd adjust my expectations accordingly.

I have several friends who have been looking for new roles and are having the same trouble finding a new role. I would definitely recommend networking and trying to get a referral. That might help you get your foot in the door somewhere.

Take a look at some of the more marketing roles, CV rewrites, or write a book. Sometimes, the off-the-wall ideas give you the best rewards. And if you write the book remember where the idea came from.

So I say this with complete humility and an understanding that this is a fortunate-ish situation to be in. I’m in a position where I am tied to nothing, I have no children, spouse, or house. My job, which I’ve loved until some recent significant leadership changes, is sucking the life out of me and I think it may be time for a change. Because I am able to “pick up and go” I’m open to opportunities and locations. I’ve never worked with a recruiter but was hoping I could get some recommendations!

I am product designer with a fair amount of experience (6yrs).

Recently was interviewed for a Sr. role in Booking but unfortunately, the team finds me better suited as a core individual contributor.
