Post your industry so someone can provide some more specific advice.


That's kind of my issue though. I don't know if I have an industry. I was head first into the world of academia (education) and ran into a brickwall. Now I'm trying to rebuild my life, but I'm not sure what I'm qualified for. Still trying to research where I should be.

I have a lot of experience in rhetoric and composition, helping run a writing center, qualitative research, and teaching. Some experience with video editing, marketing and communication, and brand building.

Did I see at some time you're in Birmingham? With that background, Pangeatwo may be able to place you somewhere. They were one of the better ones I dealt with, though my contact there was pretty useless. He's no longer there though, so maybe they have better people.

A headhunter is not going to be of any help to you here. They are good when getting people to move from one firm to another within the same general industry.

What you need is a job coach, or someone to help you figure out how to take your skill set and apply them to a profession.
