So at the moment I am working full time and studying part time. The course I'm doing is pretty heavy and needs a lot of reading and study, however, the job I work at is very busy and can involve a lot of pressure and long hours.

I really don't enjoy the work I do and what I'm studying is going to result in a complete career change into a totally unrelated field. I really want to do well in it and get completely out of what I'm doing now.

My question is, I want to take my foot off the accelerator for a while and step back into a less demanding job. I plan to approach some agencies to see if I can get something from them, but how honest should I be? Will I look bad if I go to an agency and say that I'm looking for something less challenging? Or can they work with my honesty and help me find what I'm looking for?
