For a while now I’ve been thinking about getting a new job. But I’m not too sure where to start.
Part of me feels that I should go for something like admin because it will add new skills to my cv, and isn’t too different from retail (it’s still customer service based, and doesn’t necessarily require extra qualifications).
But I’ve also been considering trying to get a job abroad. A couple of obvious jobs would be teaching English as a foreign language or an au pair. I like the idea of living abroad because it would be a completely new fresh start to my life, with an opportunity to meet completely different people in a very different culture to my own.
I also want to learn languages, and living abroad could really benefit that. I have been trying to learn languages online for a while, but I feel that it would be a real confidence boost if I could use it with people who are fluent, and just be surrounded by the language all the time.
I just don’t know how to start with finding a new job, especially if I want a job abroad.
I’ve been looking at jobs on jobsites, but I don’t feel that any of them really suit what I want. It’s also tricky to find jobs inn foreign countries, because I don’t really have experience using foreign languages and I don’t know what sort of jobs would be available to someone who can only speak English in a country that might not predominantly speak English.
I don’t know. I’ve just been having thoughts going around my mind for a while, and I didn’t know what to do with them.
I’ve signed up to an au pair website, but I have no idea if it will go anywhere.
I suppose this is just going to take a lot of time an research, and I really shouldn’t expect anything to happen before the end of the year.
