Career change - advice..

    Hi

    In 2009 I graduated with a construction related degree. At that time I found it hard to gain employment. I even tried to reskill in IT, but to be honest I felt I was going nowhere.

    With the construction sector busy at the minute, I'm still finding it hard to gain employment. No agency will listen and as for companies, applying directly they don't want to know. I have walked all round Dublin to sites handing in CV's and offering my services and still nothing. Last year I participated on a Jobbridge scheme in construction, but nothing came out of it. So its "adios" to the construction game.

    I am really interested in studying a postgraduate course or conversion course in Statistics, Data Science, Maths and Finance. Have some R-Programming, Python and SQL short courses done.

    Can anyone give some advice on what course or what route to take into any of these sectors?

    Cheers
