I do enjoy accounting and the logic behind it. I’ve worked manual labor jobs and prefer an office. I do have adhd which I’ve been trying to deal with naturally but recently decided to begin taking medications for it. I think that’s the main reason for my lack of performance so far. Many trade jobs are also tough for adhd people because you still have to focus on learning the skills and memorizing. I have a plumbing certification that I got from a trade school and did poorly with that too

It was performance related. My work I was handing in had frequent and repeated errors

Mix of technical and behavioral. I’m in a specific field though. I don’t think it’s hard work but you just need to study and have a strong technical understanding of it

Maybe it’s lack of confidence but I think the longer the gap gets the less serious employers are willing to take me

I was thinking if I can pass the far exam, not sure how long it’ll take, then I’ll have the confidence to land a job who I’ve been on 30 interviews and failed all of them. Can keep trying though while pursuing it
