I think I made a serious mistake. After 5 years of toiling in the investment field, I made a conscious decision to go back to school and finish the degree I never finished. I obtained a degree in Bus.Admin – Economics in Orlando, FL. During school, I was temping to make ends meet. When I finished, I thought I wanted to get into international economics/business while plotting for my masters. Given Miami’s proximity, I moved to a friend’s place in Miami.
Since then, my search has been a total disaster. I think the temp jobs have put a serious hole in my resume. I’m not bilingual (I would say my spanish is intermediate, but not fluent). To make ends meet in the short term, I’m temping, but the agency isn’t much help for permanent positions so far.
I’m really at a loss. I seriously underestimated this city and the search. Now I’m at a loss what to do. I’m kind of stuck here right now, and my prospects seem dim. I don’t regret going back to school, but I need help.
