I want to leave my current job

I wouldn't leave your job in retail until you actually find a job suitable to your degree you got.
It could be ages before you might get another job if you left it 😔 😔 😔
Have you tried places like the banks/ building societies that are always needing computing experts....

Hi @Littleemma98 yeah but it’s so competitive and I can’t really pass this competency format interview. Also I really need to leave this job within the next 4 months because I feel mentally drained and fatigued and exhausted. It’s so depressing.

Hi
Apologies for late response 😔 😔 😔
Yes understand what you mean but making sure you have something else before you leave your current job would be best for you until you can get yourself a job that suitable to your degree you have earned.
It's a very competitive market for computer experts and I know you sound downhearted about not able to find something within the computing industry I think you still have a decent job in retail although it's hard at times especially with the start of the Christmas madness coming up fast.

I don't think leaving your current role before securing something new would be a wise idea. It would likely be more damaging for your mental health as you'd feel a lack of purpose, not have a routine, and may find yourself unemployed for a while which could end up impacting your confidence and self-esteem.
I saw another one of your post where you'd expressed interest in becoming a Paramedic, and your reasons for why that may not be possible. How about training to be a Nurse instead? There are so many different specialisms that you could choose, and it offers plenty of opportunities in the UK and globally. If you specialised as an ER Nurse you would have some similarities to being a Paramedic because of the pace, variety, working with multidisciplinary colleagues, and it being emergency medicine.

What would I have to do to become one please?

Like with training to be a Paramedic, you could either complete a BSc in Nursing, or some Trusts recruit to Nurse Associate roles which are similar to an apprenticeship.
If you planned to take any healthcare route, your application would be made stronger if you gain any experience in a healthcare setting - this could be voluntary or paid:
If you look on individual hospital websites, they often have a page about volunteering with them.
You could volunteer with St John Ambulance.
Apply for paid employment within the NHS now to get you out of retail, and this experience that you would be gaining would strengthen any university applications. You could work in entry level administrative or healthcare assistant roles.
I was sent this earlier via the NHS careers website:
A nursing degree makes you highly employable and there will be plenty of opportunities to progress your career. Plus, there’s lots of financial support available, including an annual payment of at least £5,000 that you won’t have to pay back.

The only question is with me turning 25 soon and to do a second degree do I have the time and commitment for it and is it worth it?

People return to study and retrain at all ages and stages of their life. You’re only young and have many years of employment ahead of you so it makes sense to put in the time to do something that you’re aligned with.
I’ve just turned 36 and I’m planning to study a degree either next or the year after. I know people older than me who have done this.
Something being worth it is relative and personal to the individual, so that’s something that only you can decide.

Is there an apprenticeship route?

Yes, there’s the Nurse Associate role that I mentioned you could look in to. The link I included in my last reply has details of different Nurse specialisms, and the Nurse Associate role.
You can also go to the NHS jobs website and search for Nurse Associate vacancies nationwide wide list to read the advert, JD, and PS, to get a feel for the role.

Great thank you for providing the link and I will be sure to take a look into it.

No problem at all, I’m happy to help.
From seeing your other post where you showed interest in being a Paramedic or a Police Officer, it does seem like you’re drawn to public service type roles. But with the health barrier that you discussed, Nursing could be a good fit for you as you wouldn’t have that same challenge. Especially if you specialised in ER/A&E as you’d find similarities with being a Paramedic.
Good luck with your research. Hopefully you find the right path soon.

Something keeps drawing me to policing.

If your health prevents you from a front line role, maybe consider applying for some entry level support staff positions. But that depends on if you’d enjoy a desk based role vs the active careers you’ve already considered.

Within the police? Is there such roles?
