My nephew has indicated to me that he is miserable. He has had severe depression before, notably in 3rd year uni. He nearly quit, but hung on and got a 2.2 He graduated straight into the pandemic, and despite applications by the dozen, and using his university re CV help can find no work but covid testing at an airport. This is his 2nd winter of it, and he says he can't stick it much longer. The work is outsourced to an agency, its zero hours, and freezing cold. How can I help him? It seems to me he needs resetting on a career path. He's done bar work and odd shifts of ecology survey work and a lot of wildlife volunteering. He has been applying for NHS admin jobs but having no experience except good literacy and organisation skills, never gets anywhere.
Is there any place he can train for such things?
I hate to hear him so miserable. He was a very bright boy, musical, fluent French, fond of reading, well spoken. He lost his way after a shattering love affair 2 years ago and hasn't found it since.
