I’m a multimedia designer, 25, here a metro manila. Just resigned to my agency job, dahil sobrang drained nako. Dinahilan ko nadin yung family ko.

Wala akong backup at all haha. Meron akong JO na artist from a bpo company but still, I declined. Rendering nako and wala pako nahahanap. Planning on resting muna from designing dahil I was drained to death w all the EOD deadlines and postings. Honestly, pang-inhouse hanap nila, hindi agency. Medyo nagsisisi ako but, I wanna be brave and make this work. Idk if makakahanap ako agad pero if not, will resort to any work nalang basta meron.

I feel like any industry rn is tight, pero it’s still a mind over matter thing. Yung faith padin nating it’ll work out regardless haha. I don’t know what to tell my peers esp my closest friends. I hope I don’t disappoint them. Cause I did weigh it before I came to this point.

Lowkey, gusto ko magdesign padin tho, kahit entry level sahod ulit, basta may income. :(

Hi, I’m 25queer, breadwinner and in the creatives industry. Nagstart ako magapply late March nitong taon.

I am at my 2nd job at a marketing agency, nilapat ako dito ng first company ko, I was an inhouse designer before but now I’m currently a Multimedia Designer. Andami kong rejections from companies. Thing is, I need to a new job na dahil hindi maganda epekto sakin ng agency setup. And my family, they need financial support ngayon. Currently a proby here, and kada absent ko ay ofcourse may kaltas.

Ang sakit lang kapag may urge kana to leave but can’t resign unless may papalit na after, especially if involved na yung family.

Hindi ko din maimagine aabutin ng December here for my 13th month pay hahaha. I feel numb na kapag rejected sa companies.

Is it really that tough rn sa marketing and creative industry? Hahaha, bigat. I’m also thinking of changing careers sa marketing, but idk either what type of role.
