Hi I am a Bcom graduate, worked as an audit associate in KPMG for a year and pursued my diploma in video editing, I worked as a video editor for 3 years and now lost the job for no reason of mine. It is getting hard for me to get a job in video editing especially after rise of the AI. It has been more than a year and haven't found anything concrete in my domain and I am considering going back to IT or any other domain but I don't have anyone to guide me. All I see is customer support roles. I graduated in 2016. Please help. What can I do next to get a job?

Ans: Dear Mr. Dilip Many a times , just for trivial financial gain , we commit blunder and chage the track almost 180degree and then find themselves at point of no return. It is fact AI has its advantages and disadvantages . Job losses are apprehended due to use of AI Tools in editing and many generative fields requiring expertise whereas AI ChatGPT etc can perform those tasks in Minutes . Nevertheless , I will suggest you to learn some relevant AI courses to upgrade you skills or else get back to Auditing , starting from Good accoutning firm or other companies in the field of accounts/ commercial/ Stores / SCM / Logistics and then you can go for SAP SD / MM/Fico like courses to upskill yourself.
