(forgive me for how i am going to compose everything. im not a great storyteller lol)

Hello po (22m). I’m currently an online college HM student and employed na for 3 years na sa sales industry. Around 25k ang net pay, home based. Wala pa akong children or sinusupport na parents since both of them are still employed and years far from retirement.

I am REALLY miserable with my current job. The metrics, the pressure of being forced to work onsite kapag bumagsak, the management, all had just became way too much.

Although being an undergraduate, I currently plan on working overseas and I need help. Clueless ako kung saan magsstart (aside from the idea of getting a passport lol) Hindi sa ungrateful ako sa what i get right now, but its really taking a toll on my mental health. Job opportunities for me i feel are very limited because of my educational attainment.

May recommendations po ba kayo on what countries I should aim for, what job i should get and what i need to avoid?
Should I go straight to an agency?

For those that are working overseas na, what is the living expenses like and how much po nassave niyo?

I am thinking of doing an upskill muna sa TESDA (like welding or automotive) since that will give me better opportunities daw.

Thanks po sa makakasagot!
