My husband just left me and i havent worked for 13 years. I also live abroad ( british but expatriated). i desperately need a job. I worked in marketing for years, but am in my second year of a creative writing masters and really want to set myself up as a freelance writer so i can continue living in the country my kids are being schooled in. Despite my 25 years experience I am getting turned down for even below minimum wage jobs. I cant work out if its because im too old, too far away, too many years out of work, too experienced. I dont know, and wondered if anyone could recommend a careers adviser
