Feel like a failure at work

I work in a very fast past environment. I work at a steady pace but I'm always making mistakes or something isn't done right correctly

The work is completely out of my specialism, but I'm always striving to learn and improve for next time.

I feel very ashamed of myself, I let myself down and I let my team down all the time, if work takes longer than it needs to. :frown:

I love my job and I really like my team, but I feel like leaving the company

I really want to do my best, but I feel like its never enough. I'm trying my best

any thoughts?

Keep at it and you will get there. Just continue to strive to be better and your proficiency at the job will increase.

If after after a considerable amount of time, say 8 months to a year or so, you still feel absolutely incompetent on the job, then you might have to start looking for a new role that plays to your strengths. Just ensure that you are being honest with yourself in assessing if you 100percent apply yourself to the job or not.
