Lost, next steps advice.

Hey all, not sure if this is the right place to post this but any advice would be brilliant.

I am currently living abroad, moved to NZ with my then girlfriend in 2013. I'm coming towards the end of a 3 year visa(up early next year). Basically I don't know what to do next, I feel completely lost and just keep putting it to the back of my mind.

I have an honours degree in business which I feel was a huge mistake as I don't even like it. Have a decent enough job dong something loosely related to my degree. I don't hate my job and get paid decent coin, but I feel it's not something I really want to be doing and feel like I need a change. I don't know if I should apply for another visa and stay on, apply for a permanent visa, leave and go back to Ireland and try to get into college doing something I like( which I have no clue of by the way)


I recently turned 28 and feel it's a really important time in my life but I'm totally lost and confused. I have a lot of free time on my hands also as I'm out of work currently with an injury and have been since May.

Mrs OBumble

Is your injury likely to limit your options or make it difficult to go back to your current job?

If it is then ask your ACC case manager to refer you to a career counsellor.

If not, then you might have to pay for it yourself but they can still likely suggest someone.

No it's only a broken bone that's just healing very slowly. A Carrer councillor sounds good though, have you used one in the past? Thanks for the reply!
