Objective
I have a degree in marine biology (graduated 2021) and am seeking a job in aquaculture. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find any aquaculture or marine biology-related jobs as they seem to be very rare in my country, Malaysia. (Referring to skilled jobs—there are plenty of unskilled labour openings here, e.g. fish farm general worker.) I currently have a job unrelated to my field of study (Business Analyst at a chemicals manufacturer) but am constantly looking for opportunities to work in the field that I am truly passionate about. I am willing to relocate if necessary.
