Full Careers

How do I get into a different career or job?

I was rejected to train as a paramedic and now i've lost all confidence and direction in what I want to do in life. I have Maths, Science and English GCSE, Biology AS Level and a Health & Social Care A Level. I would like a job in Healthcare or IT I think but have no experience (I've only worked in retail and call centres) Are there any similar jobs or good career prospects available to me without going to university or studying further? I would have liked to reapply to train as a paramedic but I lack a reference for university (Cant go back to teachers) & I think my statement would highlight the lack of direction that I now have.... Help, any suggestions are welcome

  2. I think I might have something for you. I recently started another business in the health and wellness industry. It involves helping people. You get to make your own hours and it can be done either locally or online although I have had more success locally. You can become certified in this program by taking the online course. It takes about 4 weeks and it comes with a doctor's certification. If this is something that might be of interest to you feel free to send me a message and I will send you the information.
  3. have you tried looking at the Open University and doing some of their courses? They are legitimate credits and are accepted all over the UK. And you get some knowledge and experience.
