Ok, so a bit of a backstory. I'm 33 now, however when I was 18 I'd been accepted to every Uni I wanted but turned it down because my boyfriend at the time ran away from home and I was compelled to stay with him in a council house we'd found till I was 21. Finally realised I was wasting my life away, so never had the option of Uni.
Right now I'm a Senior Recruitment Consultant, I've been in recruitment in some form or another for about four years now. I'm good at it, it's a safe job but I'm fed up of the younger club rep types trying to stamp some form of sales patter on everything. I'm more quiet, serious and very methodical and some personality types really rile me (which is terrible to say when I work in recruitment!)
I don't know what I want to do at all, but I also know time is running out to get to the point. I wanted to be a prison officer for a while, then work as a nurse and then now I'm onto account management and on site recruitment (another safe choice)
Does anyone have any idea of where I can go for careers advice at my age? I feel like life is just passing my by, my DP is a Merchandiser for a major clothes chain and loves the job. Listens to me moan every night and I need to turn this around!
