The company I work for is based out of Seattle and has a small branch that I manage here in the SLC area. Over the last year the seattle area has lost sereval large accounts and it is hurting the whole company. They are contemplating closing down Utah and using all resources up there. I won't move up there, and wouldn't be able to afford a home there for my little family like we have here. I am finishing school and will have my bachelors in business by the end of the year. I am 27, and have been working here for 6 years. I had planned on looking for a new career when I had my degree, but it looks like I need to jump ship ASAP.
I am wondering what would be the best thing to do. Should I look for a paid internship somewhere that would promise a better job and salary when I graduate? Should I just find something for this year and look again when I graduate? Should I stay put and hope that they have use for me until I graduate?
I don't care what the industry is. I have done a lot of different things for this company; sales, account managing, accounts payable, advertising, collections, management/training, and very technical laser printer repair/training. I just need to make around 50k to start with no degree yet. Am I screwed? I figured that a lot of you here might have ideas or suggestions. I don't need a company name or anything, I was just hoping for some general pointers or industry trends. PM me if you want. I am going to contact some of my networking connections for tips as well, but thought I'd throw it out here.
Thanks for any ideas,
Andy
