Hi all, I just recently graduated from DCU with a degree in communications. Im now faced with the tough job of finding a career that suits me. I want to get into advertising. My initial plan was to apply for the J1 graduate visa and head to LA or somewhere in California. I'm just back from a 3 month J1 visa and I met American friends who are heading in that direction to pursue various careers also. I'm struggling to decide whether I want to apply for graduate programs here or in the US. I feel under pressure because I only have a 12 month window to decide which one I want. I know it's very hard to get a paid internship in the US and I would need one to sustain myself over there. However I do have that travel bug after my summer abroad and I've found settling back into Ireland very challenging. If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
