This is more of a rant than for the purpose of seeking advice. I accepted this job a few months before graduating college. It’s a marketing role which I know is my passion and will be my career. I just don’t like the industry or the nature of this job. I’m doing well, my first project did great and I got good praise from my boss and coworkers.
My heart is in the technology and software industry. I worked 2 internships at software companies and really felt like I found my industry. Because of COVID and everything I took this job because I was desperate and figured any experience is good experience, and the pay was decent for an entry-level marketing job in a high cost of living city.
It’s a great skill set to grow my career in marketing. It’s good hours and people are nice, and I was definitely completely miserable at the start. I don’t feel as horribly about it now but I just wish I loved it and wasn’t constantly looking towards my path forward at a new company.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m struggling to adjust to working full-time (which I definitely am) but I don’t like what I do. I’ve been networking a lot after work with people in roles I want to work in at companies I want to work for. They all have told me they’ll keep me in mind and to not let guilt holding me back from jumping ship, even if it’s in the next few months.
I’m not actively looking for a job but I feel a little miserable in this role. I don’t want to dread work on Monday when I’m supposed to be relaxing on the weekends. I’m hoping one of my connections approaches me with something and I plan to start reaching out at the 6 month mark if I still feel this way. It’s gotten better, but I’m definitely not very happy.
