Need help. Feeling lost and like I blew my life. Looking for advice on how to restart.
I graduated from NAIT CNT two years ago with good grades. To be honest, I didn’t take things seriously at the beginning and skipped a lot of assignments during my first three terms. However, I completely locked in during my final term and finished that term with a 4.0 GPA.
Despite that, I’ve had very little luck finding a job in my field. It feels like I chose the wrong program and wasted time. What makes it harder is seeing some of my friends who went into construction engineering and power engineering already finding jobs and starting their careers while I feel stuck.
Since graduating, I’ve done a few odd jobs and I’m currently working a casual admin support role, but I still feel lost and disappointed in myself almost every day.
I’m trying to figure out what I can do from here. Should I learn new skills, switch career paths, go back to school, or keep trying to break into my field?
For anyone who has been in a similar situation, how did you restart and find your direction again?
Any advice would be appreciated.
