i feel like im gonna drop out of college when i turn 18 therefore ill need to get a job then. its because i dont think im gonna past my first year of college because of the tight deadlines and stuff like that. ive been thinking of doing something with admin when i drop out but im scared that im not going to be able to find a job. ive been thinking of doing the mandatory work experience that i have to do in february in an estate agent and then later on doing one week's worth of work experience in the british red cross. honestly in terms of the type of work experience i want to do in the british red cross i want to do i want to go in HR and learn how they do stuff there. alternatively when im 18 i can just apply to citizens advice as an admin assistant volunteer like i tried to do in the past but was too young. i think applying to citizens advice as a volunteer will be better as ill get more experience there as a couple weeks of worth of work experience isnt enough. i just really hope ill be able to get a job after i drop out of college.
