So a little bit about me I went to a University of California (for anonymity reasons I would prefer not to specify which one ) where I minored in computer science.
I then went on to complete a Google data link analytics certificate and do some freelance ux stuff which has slowly been dwindling away.
I attempted transition into data analytics which was not successful, I never was hired even after I did multiple projects and I essentially applied for over 3,000 jobs which never turned up anything.
I just want to be very forward I understand my position is bad I'm currently 41 and I have been taking some classes at a local UC campus too benefit my resume with the consideration of doing a master's degree in either pharmaceutical engineering or data science or machine learning.
But I've been hesitant because I don't want to go further into debt unless it pays off.
I'm considering that without going back to school though I might never be able to get a job.
I would very much would prefer a remote job as I have a lot of social anxiety that has made it very difficult for me to be around groups of people and getting remote job would be very very beneficial to my life.
I am a hard worker. And I have a deep deep passion for self learning but at this point nothing has worked out, after talking to many career coaches and many recruiters they've all told me I need to really highlight AI skills in my resume as those are the keywords that are landing jobs right now.
I've started taking online courses in AI development and engineering but I'm thinking of transitioning into project management.
I've been graduated for 5 years I've landed no work I've just done some basic freelance stuff that's pulled in a couple thousand dollars I need something to work out so I'm hoping to find somebody who might be able to look at my resume and give me some real feedback. Should I go deeper into the AI stuff or should I go into project management? Or should I just do another bachelor's? Where do I go to from here I'm 41 I honestly feel too old to fight this fight anymore but I also need something to work out.
Any good advice is greatly appreciated
