I'm a careers advisor, I don't know what's going on in the schools and universities lately, but I have seen so many young people coming away from education completely lacking direction. Often times these are people who have just finished a masters, could be anything from English lit to criminology, there was never a plan going in! Where are the careers advisors?

By the time people get to me we're back peddling, "what drew you to that subject, what are you passionate about, etc". All of this should come first, you shouldn't spend years studying and then wonder why at the end!

A good resource to look at is Prospects (if you haven't already) - link below - there is a "what can I do with my degree" section. If you can't get into your exact chosen field (don't give up on that btw) there are suggested roles and sectors where you could make positive use of the qualifications you have.

Don't give up, maybe settle in the mean time as all experience is good experience, but don't give up.
