I feel like I'm going to blow away to Oz and join Dorothy and friends. I'm also surprised that my wheelie bins haven't been blown half way down the street (they've just fallen over)
I'm writing this after just completing a piece of coursework of, 'a graduate reflective report' - talking about two of your career options. Now, it's at this time of the year where all graduate positions are coming out and you really have to think about... what do you actually want to do?
Now within careers week - our adviser told us to just think about the next few years, the job you may get isn't necessarily the one that you'll stay in for the rest of your life - there's options, opportunities.
Being an upcoming graduate of English and Creative Writing - there's so many different job opportunities (obviously not the science/engineering based ones - unless you're a proofreader/marketing team etc) but positions usually want someone with excellent communication skills, creative energy and great team working skills with signs of leadership - all of this with no select degree!
You really do have to look. I'm looking into going for marketing or merchandising/buying - and all of these take any degree subjects - you just have to have the skills that they're looking for. I applied for merchandising and buying the other day and had to thoroughly research what the difference is between off-price merchandising/buying compared to full-price retailing. Now, obviously this isn't the subject I have taken, but as long as you're willing to put in the time and effort to research the company - you'll be fine.
It will all pay off in the end (hopefully)
