Confused About My Career Path – Need Guidance from Someone Who's Been There

Hey everyone,

I’m 23 years old and have 2 years of work experience in a service-based company. I had to leave the job due to health issues caused by working in rotational shifts.

I’ve planned to pursue a master’s in management field in Europe, but deep inside, I’m extremely confused about my career direction.

I did my BBA with a major in Marketing, but I’m unsure what role fits me or where my real interests lie. I know I don’t want to go back to my previous job, but I also don’t know what to aim for next.

I do have some interest in technical fields — but not in coding. Lately, I’ve also started getting interested in design fields like graphic design, UI/UX, and motion design. Every time I come across a tool or course on YouTube, I feel curious and excited. But at the same time, I get scared to commit, thinking:

What if I start something, and later I realize I don’t like it? What if it doesn’t suit me? Won’t all the time I invested be wasted?

Financially, I’m not in a strong position either. I’ll have to rely on an education loan to study abroad since I don’t have much savings right now.

I’m feeling stuck. Please drop your suggestions on which tools, software, roles, or courses I can learn that align with tech, design, or business — but don’t involve deep coding. If anyone has been through something similar or has tips on how to figure things out, I’d truly appreciate your help.

Thank you.

You are still very young. I think doing MBA will be great addon for your resume and you will get good job opportunities. If you have interest in graphics Design you can learn online and start taking it up as a hobby and improve your skills. Later you can switch with mba n graphics in animation companies as well. Also incorporate AI with designing in your hobby.
