Take as much time as you need here, as you don’t want to make a hasty decision. Then, once you’re ready to pull the trigger, you can begin to refresh your resume and look into new ways to gain relevant experience or new skills, such as in-person or online classes.
You will also just have to put yourself out there, no matter how scary it may be. Don’t hesitate to submit job applications, reach out to old connections for support, market yourself on social media, and show up at networking events.
The worst thing that anyone can ever say is “No.” And honestly, you never know: an unlikely door that you knock on might just be the one that opens and leads you to land your dream job.
