Feeling stuck — far from family, job searching in a new city, just needed to vent
I don’t usually post stuff like this but here goes. I’m living away from my family right now and it’s been really hard. I work as data analyst. I genuinely love the work, but I’m burnt out from the distance. My family is in the DMV area and I just want to be there.
I’m actively job searching — data analyst or any data type roles in DMV area or remote. I’m on H1B so I need sponsorship, which makes everything harder and slower and more stressful than it already is. Some days it feels like every door has an extra lock on it.
If anyone has leads, knows someone hiring, or has been through the H1B transfer process while job searching — I’d really appreciate any advice or connections. And if you’ve just been through a hard season away from home, I’d love to hear how you got through it.
