Thank you for the overwhelming love and support I have received. Sometimes I feel like I don't deserve all this love, so thank you for reminding me why I do what I do, and who I am as a person. Sending everyone who is struggling or not struggling so much love from my heart too. Thank you for being here❤
Dang this really resonates with me. I just finished my Masters in landscape architecture with a bachelors in plant science....so I thought I would be the perfect candidate and I've still been struggling to find a job. I've been feeling like something is wrong with me and like I'm falling behind while everyone else is finding jobs. It's very hard specially when everything suddenly changes right after graduation....It feels like you got dropped off in a desert after being on a travel bus. But we all do have our own timing. We also have to look at the full picture. Even thought it's taken me longer to find a job, I was also one of the few students who had a consistent job throughout the program and therefore I also did not have time to prepare my portfolio and resume until after graduation. I think post graduation is a great time to self explore. Life is a long journey, and in the grand scheme of things this is just a short window. The important thing is to not give up trying. Figure out your position and desire in life and then execute with confidence and you will be on your way to forging your path to a happy life. As long as you keep moving forward, it is inevitable that you will find opportunities.
Thank you so much for such a heartfelt comment Hector. Yes, I do feel like after graduating it's normal to feel completely lost, especially for people who has a drive to do something. It is a phase and hopefully it will pass soon for you. Keep going and believing in yourself!!!
I am a landscape architecture student in Australia. I was in the same boat with you few months ago. I can totally feel you. You are not alone. I hope you got your job very soon.
Thank you for such a nice comforting comment 😊 I'm sure it will pass and I am just going to trust the process! It is nice to know that we are not alone in these times :)
I'm exactly in the same boat as you, Glory. I graduated in July and since then I've been applying to architecture firms for a part I placement without any success. I know that my portfolio is strong as I received multiple positive feedbacks from the companies however, the problem is that no one is recruiting or Im not the right "fit" for the company. In the meantime, a few of my friends from the architecture course are already working as Part I and that makes me feel hopeless about my future and undervalued. It feels tough because I put so much effort into the course, my portfolio, job application, managed to get a First, yet here I am struggling to find a job. A really good friend of mine advised me to trust in the process and stay calm so that's what I have been doing the past few weeks whilst applying for jobs here and there. Life is all about overcoming obstacles and challenges, and they make you grow into a stronger person. So I'm just patiently waiting and keep trying and trying until I get my first job offer. We can do this!!
This is exactly how I felt and you captured it perfectly, Tobilol! Yes, I am happy we can find comfort in the similarity of our experiences and we will definitely learn a lot about ourselves and get stronger through this process. You're right, we can do this and I am wishing you the best of luck as well! :)
Hi Glory, I just found your channel and the part of you crying really resonated with me. Thank you for being brave and putting this out there, it really helps to know that I’m not going thru this alone and that a lot of people are experiencing this. I saw you got a job, I’m excited to check out your journey and hope I get a good result myself soon.
I'm studying architecture as well and can understand your feeling! May be joining some competition can build up your portfolio and help you distract from the job hunting stress. Love your work and I'm sure you will find a job soon!
Hi Glory, I am in a similar position to you now. I’m graduating from MArch soon and I really don’t know what I want to do after, career wise and even where I want to live etc. It is really comforting to know that others feel the same as me, so I hope you are comforted by this too. And remember that it is ok to feel sad and stressed-this is a huge transition in your life. Don’t get too down on yourself for feeling completely natural emotions!
Thank you so much Giulia! It is really comforting to know a lot of people are going through the same thing and it's nice for all of us to comfort and give advice to one another :) I am trying to validate my feelings too and just be kind to myself as well!
Heyy Glory:)..
I can't believe my eyes when it comes to the views and likes of your videos...I mean seriously...You deserve WAY better...(what you have is great but...you do deserve wayyyyyy more for how great your content is)

And I wanna remind you that you're living the dream, the passion of a teenager Glory who used to get excited about your life now(hope so..I was trying to relate with myself 🥲)...So..please stay greatful for what you've got yourself...Stay motivated N happie...❣️❣️
Oh my goodness.. thank you so much @Filter Free for your kind words 🥺 Honestly I'm happy if my content makes a difference to one person so I'm happily content, but thank you for your good wishes for me!
I will definitely stay grateful for all I have, my year has honestly been great, I'm sure this is just a rough patch that life has thrown me where I will end up learning a lot, so thank you so much 💕
I really wish you good luck with job hunting!!!!! It's such a tough period, but I believe in you!You are an incredible person and I always look up to you
Wow, I feel so humbled by the fact you say you look up to me 🙈 that motivates me to be a better role model I guess hahaha! but thank you for your good wishes!
Hello Glory,
I saw your video and it really evoke lots of emotion in me and gives me the real insight of what a life is. I am in year 13 and cannot really relate to you but I am planning on applying for architecture and seeing your previous video was very helpful and supportive. However, I do have some experience in applying for jobs as I did applied for many jobs after GCSEs and each one just rejected me and after months I just gave up but one day when I already started my year 12, I got an email and they offered me to be a english and maths tutor.
Now it's been 4 months since I am working as a tutor and I am soo grateful for this job as it brings me so much motivation and enjoyment which I might not have gotten if I went for the other customer service jobs which I was applying for at that time.
so I would just say that stay positive and you will get something a lot better!!
Thank you so much @NIDA Asghar! :)) Yes, I think my university really did not prepare me for this reality and it hit me like a ton of bricks, so I am really grateful I have a loving support system around me. I am so glad that your job is working out for you and you find a lot of fulfilment from it! And thank you also for your good wishes 😊
I haven't had any fun lately, 😭 so it was fun. You bring me joy!❤🙂I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. ❤I like the essence how you live on. I need to be true to myself and find a job I am passionate about. I want to find a way to live as who I really am.
勇敢的人展示生活真實的一面，日子平常，有陽光☀️，陰雨🌧️，台風和彩虹🌈， 相信找到工作的那天，回望今天，你會發現你并沒有 get lost ! 在失落和找回自己的一個個周而復始中, 人慢慢成長, 我們都是這樣長大的! sooo proud of you !
Thank you for being by my side mom❤and all the support and calls you gave me
真的勇士，敢於直面慘淡的人生，敢於正視淋漓的鮮血！想起這句話，送給你！🌿
Hi Glory, it’s sooo upsetting to see you crying there just want hug you and let you know all will be ok. You’ve gone through massive changes of routine and living place. Job hunting is and can really tough been there many a time regardless of if had 1 year experience or 20 years. It probably even more difficult living in city like London as the city and peoples lives around you are going on fast and you your life Is stationery. If you need reach out Glory, please do so maybe can give some pointers on job searching etc.
Thank you so much Andrew 🤗 You are totally right, it's hard not to compare to others but I am really trying my best to stay calm and centered! It's reassuring to know that you can relate and understand the situation, so thank you again 💕 and also for offering help and advice! I will reach out if I need it :)
@@glorykuk you’re welcome Glory. Yes of course it’s always hard not to compare yourself to others and yes it’s best to try stay calm and centred but sometimes it’s easier to say than do. Oh yes as said before can totally relate and understand your situation. You’re welcome I will be more than happy to help and advise where and when I can. Please do reach out if you need I am a very good listener 😉 like I said if can guide you in anyway in your job search, networking etc happy to help. Keep in touch Andrew ❤️ 😘 🤗
@@glorykuk something I was meant to mention to you before is I would recommend you getting a profile set up on LinkedIn….any questions or guidance on that feel free to drop me a message 💕 🤗 😘
Please don't give up! Things can change in a matter of days. I am feeling the same at the moment but in the field of law. Applied to several firms for legal practice while doing my course but no one replied and those that did refused me. So your video resonated a lot with my situation right now.
Thank you for commenting Doreen! The economy is not great at the moment, so the job market has been pretty slow. I am wishing you the best of luck and we can do this together! :)
@@glorykuk good luck to you too xxx
Hey, It was nice getting a chance to chat with you in the street! I hope it wasn’t too awkward haha
Hey Omar! Hahahaha, no it wasn't awkward at all - I am glad you stopped me to say hello, thank you for chatting with me and I am wishing you all the best with your sixth year in medicine and going forward! :)
I am also going through the same situation 🙂
Sending my best wishes and support to you! xx
