Do A Personal Side Project
Most creative careers/industries require a portfolio to showcase (read: PROVE) that you know how to do the job that you’ve applied for. The best way to fill up your portfolio and keep your creative juices flowing is by doing side projects! Check out this Portfolio Project Generator to get a few ideas.
Job Shadow
Job Shadowing happens when a working professional agrees to let you tag along with them for a “day in the life” type of experience. This is the perfect way to learn about unconventional career paths and expand your network. This could also, lead to paid full-time, part-time, or freelance work in the future. Learn more about job shadowing.
Volunteering
Volunteering is perfect if you want to do something good in your community while learning or improving your skills. When you volunteer, there is usually a clear start and end time for the work that you’re doing. You can also control how much time you spend working with that organization.
