Hi everyone, I've posted on here before but a while ago. Since this whole COVID-19 pandemic has happened I've been at home for about 3 1/2 months and I've been think a lot about where my life is going. I'm 25 two years out of college (B.A in Psychology w/ Minor in Business Administration), before this happened I had been working as a Barback at a resruarant in NYC for almost 6 years and did a one year, in December, internship as a marketing assistant and promoted to Marketing Coordinator after 3 months in.
Since I've been unemployed due too COVID, I've taken this time to figure out what I wanted to do as a career. I still have an interests in marketing but I just had such a bad experience in my one year internship ( It was my first one ever) because I felt so unprepared and unskilled for the position and honestly they needed people in marketing at the time so I think they promoted me because they didn't want me to leave. I know I didn't even know the basics and still don't ( like creating a marketing strategy, campaign, analyze statistics, create a business plan and some other key skills that I can't remember rn)
I've been taking an online Marketing Analytics to fill in some learning gaps, and I've even explored an area of interest in creating a gaming channel ( Its not that good but I'm glad that I'm still trying).
I just got a text from my GM at my restaurant job that they want me to work next Monday ( we operating with take out and outside seating only) my heart dropped when I saw this because I don't want to go back to a job that isn't my passion, but I don't have any other places to look for work.
I was hoping I could find an internship ( don't care about it being paid so long as I have the experience) but I don't have the skills needed to get them. I don't know what to do and I just don't want to be stuck at my restaurant job for the rest of my life.
