Worried about my career prospects
(For context: my country doesn’t have a very large Jewish community, and especially in rural areas you tend to stand out quite a lot. I already had to move to a bigger city just to be able to speak with a rabbi and participate in Jewish life more seriously.
I also know that this is not the worst problem in the world and that many people have it far worse, so I’m sorry if this comes across as insensitive in any way and in that case I will delete it.
Also, I didn’t add the “antisemitism” tag myself, Reddit added it automatically.)
I don’t know if this is the appropriate place to ask this (if not I sincerely apologize), but I just wanted a few opinions.
I’m currently finishing my first semester studying Jewish Studies and History at university. My original plan was to go into journalism, but with the current antisemitic climate, I’ve started worrying about whether people will see what I studied and single me out or choose not to hire me because of it.
I’m also worried that continuing down this path might make it even harder to find a job, especially considering how difficult the current job market already is.
I’m not Jewish, by the way, but I am in the process of becoming Jewish, so in a sense this will likely become part of my identity anyway.
I just don’t know what to do, and I thought this sub might be a place where I could find people who studied something similar or have experience with this.
English is not my first language, but I hope my meaning comes across clearly.
