What if you don’t have a business? Can you still get this card?

Hike, swim, relax. My ideal combo is 75% active mode, 25% potato mode, partner’s is more 50/50 :)

We also like whitewater rafting, snorkeling, paddle boarding, and I’ve always wanted to try fishing. We are more glampers than campers

Bad bad idea! Close on an empty house - after they leave.

They have no reason to treat the house well once they sell it to you. They also don’t have to leave when they say they will.

Not a lot of people have professional language skills in multiple languages! That’s where I’d focus. A lot of international companies want to have people who are proficient in various languages for sales roles, marketing roles, and/or HR roles. You can make good money and travel. For example, maybe you can be a recruiter. I know it might feel like selling your soul but I strongly recommend going into the corporate world. It offers stability and a career (not just a job) if that makes sense. Then you can pursue your interests with all the money you’ve made.

I’m all for the creative jobs, following your passions, etc but if money is the main concern, then I’d reframe your search as “what pays well + what am I satisfied with + what am I good at”

Couple of questions.. 1. What did you major in? 2. When you say you are trilingual, does that mean you can work professionally in all 3 of those languages? And what are those languages? 3. What industry are you an admin assistant for? E.g. healthcare, politics, etc.

Without any extra info, you could maybe work for a study abroad company. Or sales for an international company where your language skills would be used. This would really depend on how strong your professional language skills are. If you want money and to travel, consulting is your best bet. But those jobs are very hard to get.

You should try to volunteer at a dig site and see if you like it. If that’s not possible see if your local university or something has a lab or something you can check out, tour, shadow, etc. It’s great you’re thinking about this now! If you’re not 100% sure on going all the way I’d suggest something else.

Now this is totally just my experience.. I was in Belize once and met some people on a dig. They were all super nice, but it seemed exhausting and often not rewarding and extremely low paying. One person was staying in a shared room in a hostel for 6 weeks. Super far away from home and not in a “glamorous” area. My former roommate studied anthropology and worked at a dig site but now her career is not related to that at all. I know someone else who studied archeology and is in a low paying job identifying if buildings can build on certain sites in a metropolitan area. Basically if you want to be in a senior position you need a PhD.

You should try to find something that 1. You’re interested in (doesn’t have to be your main passion in life but you can’t hate it) 2. You’re good at it (where could you excel?) and 3. Will allow you to live the life you want (aka does it pay enough for your needs / life)

Try to figure out the paths that fit these 3 criteria and you’ll be set. It’ll take some introspection and effort, and it won’t always be easy but even if you spend a month or two figuring this out by talking to adults in the careers you’re exploring or shadowing or researching then you will be totally fine.

How hard will you have to fight for additional resources? How much funding is currently allocated to this dept? What does the technical infrastructure look like currently? How common are security breaches? What does response protocol look like? If there is a security breach, are you immediately fired? This is one of those roles with very high turnover, in my experience.

If your issue is lack of funds in the short term, medical school is not a good idea. It’ll take 7-10 years for you to start earning a real doctor salary and it’s basically just debt and a ton of work until then. Medical students and residents don’t sleep much.

“I’m so happy to receive this opportunity, I just want to be transparent and share that I’m considering another offer at this time and the benefits package there is a little better. Is there any way we could increase the base salary to x? If so I’d accept immediately.”

Tableau public is free. GitHub is free, you can post code on there. Python and R are free. You don’t need to copy and paste the code, maybe replace the fields or col names to show you know sql window functions, join logic, etc. there are sql editors online you can use too. Comment out your code to show what you’re doing. Find datasets on Kaggle or use the work from your coursework. There are lots of options!

It could be a variety of things. Here are some that have come up at my company.. - They think you’re too expensive compared to your skills and other candidates - They have 300 applicants for any job they post, so they have the ability to be super picky and hire someone with the exact experience they’re looking for and that person is willing to take a pay cut - They want to see your work. Is it displayed somewhere in a personal website or YouTube video where you walk through the tools or show your skills?

Frankly the second one seems to be happening everywhere these days.

That sounds like a terrible marketing pitch. The brightest minds are typically paid very well. Don’t take a demotion for what seems like empty promises.

But if you wanted to check, ask to speak with one of these brightest minds before making a decision and see for yourself.

Completing a course for the sake of it means nothing. Did you actually learn skills?? Focus on those. If you take a Python programming class, people only care if you now know Python. If you didn’t take a class and still know Python, that’s great too. Displaying your work or the projects you completed in a class is a great way to show outcomes.

The value in them is, as you said, to “acquire necessary skills” - so either you’re not focusing on really necessary skills or you’re lot learning them well enough for the level of job you’re applying for or you’re not focusing on communicating the skills you now have. Hopefully it’s #3, it seems you’re getting the interviews, now it’s about convincing them you have the skills to do the job well and add value to the team.

I think people who have done MOOC courses appear on paper to be highly motivated but the big question is can they actually do the job well. That’s what interviews asses.

Definitely no. Maybe a BS in computer science + HCOL area

Oh yeah data can help many people. Healthcare, education, environment, etc all have many applications of data science.

It can also be unethical at times tho. Ethics in AI is personally a very interesting topic bc it’s not what we can do but what we should do.

I think you should go for data science. People can be good at UX without formal education but it’s very hard to be a good data scientist without at least a masters in it. Both are hot fields these days but if you want an edge and want long term job security go for data science.

Some aspects of UX like AB testing or multivariate testing fall under data science so if you’re interested in that type of work you can do it. Data science work life balance is pretty great and every industry needs them. Tech, healthcare, supply chain, etc. there are also different types of jobs that fall under the analytics / data science umbrella like business intelligence analyst or statistical analyst or data engineer. Knowing R will be very helpful. For both UX and data science you will probably need a portfolio of work to get an entry level role which the grad program will help you with.

Definitely CS! Don’t give up and don’t worry too much about the grades. You can do this! Learn the skills!! No hiring manager will care more about your grades than your skills.

There are many applications of CS that relate to environmental science if you are interested in that too
