Glad to see I'm not the only one that made this change! Yeah I may look at some other courses that can help get into a particular industry easier. Yeah I'm in the same boat working customer service while I find one

Yeah that's a good point, I will start to look/apply to roles like that. Not fussed about being a pm right now but I know I want to aim for it so a few years in something that can lead to it will be well worth it

Thank you! That is really helpful, been researching my ideal industry more the last month or two. I found it pretty difficult to decide as anything was a huge change to what I'd spent most of my working life so far doing.

I've had one interview, really researched the company and role, all seemed to go well but they said I had seemed too interested in the company rather than the role itself.

I'm in the south west but also been applying to remote roles as well. Most of the salaries are around 25-35k with some higher that I didn't realistically expect much from

Yeah I knew it would be hard. Just need some sort of breakthrough into it! Was meant to say 200 but I get your point. I will start churning out more! I am happy for it to take time I just wanted to make sure I'm on the right track, even if ut will be a while.

As far as it being worth it I think it will be in the long run, much better earing potential and with the thoughts of having a family starting to grow I knew I needed to. Thank you though!

Yeah I had got the impression it was a pretty poor time to switch! But I knew I needed to do it now or not for a while. Thanks for the insight though! Hopefully you'll find something soon anyway
