I am a creative English Graduate desperately in need of a job starting ASAP. Do you know anyone who is hiring?

This year has been tough, I nearly lost my father to COVID and lost a job I was supposed to start in March. I am looking to work in the marketing, publishing, editorial or creative industries. I have sent 150+ applications since May, I have re-worked my CV, taken mentoring, adapted my cover letter and tailored everything to every job I apply for. I have been shortlisted but unsuccessful so far, the majority of roles haven't even responded with a rejection. I know this is the way of life so I'm accepting the fact that it's tough but I need some help.

I have 3 years experience in digital marketing, 2 years experience in editing/proof-reading/writing and 2 years experience in administrative/social media corporate tasks. I am a hard-worker and a fast-learner, if you know anyone who is hiring or are just willing to offer some friendly advice please do! It's incredibly disheartening because I can see no light at the end of the tunnel.

Feel free to check out my profile for work experience, to check out the projects I've worked on or to get in contact.

Any advice would be appreciated, thank you.

  • Hi Tabitha,

    If you’re looking for work, I’d recommend setting up freelance, remote and full time job alerts so you’re first to know about opportunities:
