3D artist looking for a career path

Hey guys

I've been doing 3d art for years now and haven't been able to find a job . To be fair I haven't been very motivated to apply for jobs in the last like 2 years but I did apply for hundreds of jobs before that through the span of like 2 or 3 years and got rejected from all of them. I feel like my work was decent enough (I wanted to do modeling/texturing) but for one reason or another it's not working for me so I was wondering what is a career path that I could try in the industry with better odds to get a job? seems like there's a lot of work for TD and rigging but I'm not completely sure what a TD does and how to learn to become one and rigging is not my favorite (but I guess that's the case for most people lol) I was also looking at vfx and cloth sim because maybe doing something more niche like that could better my chances of getting hired. Do you guys have any suggestions/resources? All of my work experience is in construction and I'd like to finally switch career paths and change industries. I'm in Canada if that makes any difference.

Thanks!
