I’ve worked in healthcare for 3 years but faced ongoing bullying from management, despite reporting it to HR multiple times. My transfer requests were ignored, and I eventually quit. Since then, I’ve had weekly interviews but haven’t landed a job. I’m at a crossroads—should I keep trying in healthcare or explore a new career? I feel lost and unsure about what to do next. Any advice on how to move forward?

I've been in healthcare for the past 15 years and I oddly feel the same way

I kind of feel like is this even my calling. When I got into it I was so hopeful and optimistic and now I feel miserable and failed by the companies that I’ve worked for.

Perhaps consider speaking with HR of your former employer and ask what kind of response they are providing prospective employers to ensure that isn't the issue. I would suggest applying for administrative roles in other fields as your skills should be transferable

Just looking for some opinions before I go in for my interview.
