I've got one and a half year left on school then I have to move on. Maybe attend some University of sorts, but I still don't know what I want to end up as. I have some ideas, however, they all seem so distant to me. I'm hoping I can get some help from the Gamespot community here, and perhaps some information on various jobs and such that I may be interested in. Starting out, I'll give you a short list of what I have thought of so far:
- Journalist.
- Author.
- Programmer.
- Technical/Visual artist (Games, maybe even websites).
- Reviewer.
- Costumer service.
As you can see, the second one may be a bit of a long stretch - Plus, I may have to go through some year of being a journalist to improve my written language enough, to finally become a writer.
3'rd and 4'th are mainly due to my passion for Gaming. However, I have serious doubts that I'd be any good at them. Sure, I've spent some time with Photoshop, but that's years ago, and I don't really have any experience with programming at all.. Seems so difficult to get into.
The 5'th is because I've written some reviews here in the past (wanting to write more, but not finding the time). It seems fun, and it would allow me to play video games or watch movies for a living, then express my feelings about these. This may also require that I become a Journalist first.
And the last one, Costumer service, I figured it would be a great way to improve my written and oral skills in English, plus I'd get to use it in my every day life. Blizzard seems to have job openings in Ireland and even USA, or I may have a chance in smaller companies first. Yet, I doubt this is what I want to end up as, but I think it may be a good way to improve certain skills of mine and become ready for a more challenging job.
So, if you have any suggestions for what I should do, please let me know by a comment. Thanks.
