Affiliate Marketing Secrets

I’m a decently experienced actress that’s done freelance before, but I’ve been looking at taking the next step in my career. So I was applying to a whole bunch of agencies in my area and got a call back from one of them wanting an interview/audition…but when I looked at them again, they’re actually a talent management company. Their owner is SAG affiliated, so I don’t think it’s a SCAM, but is it a good idea to get a manager? I’ve gotten rejected from some of the other agencies I submitted to, would getting a manager help or hinder my career?
Advice?

Over the past few months I’ve been confused as what I want to do as a career. I’m 18, recently left education and am currently unemployed. After a recent scare where my mum was emitted to an ICU, I think I’ve finally found my “niché” so-to-speak.
I honestly believe this is what I want to do. I spent every day in the ICU unit for 5 weeks, and learnt alot. I know it’s a stressful job and the 12-hour shifts are long, but I know I could do it.
My mum is finally home and I want to pursue this career path but I have no idea where to start as I don’t know what qualifications are required for this kind of position. Can anyone help me out? Thanks.

I’ve been doing a lot of research on biomechatronic engineering as a career option in the future, and I was wondering what the yearly salary for that specific field would be. I’ve tried searching on the MIT website or other sites affiliated with biomechatronics, however I cannot find any hits on salary.
If somebody who works in that field could tell me what the range may be, that would be wonderful.
Thanks in advance.

Up until the end of middle school, I had a nice, tight group of smart friends. I was in band school, as well as other clubs. I made all A’s without fail. But towards the end I started to become very concious about how I looked, and started only wearing hoodies because I thought I was fat and unattractive. By the time high school started, some of my friends split into different schools, and all I cared about was fitting in. I tried to dress like the popular black girls at my school (even though I am nothing like them, I’m what you call an “oreo”), I tried to act like them and hang around with them. But I still felt so out of place and lonely all the time. I cried often. I didn’t go out on the weekends. My grades were slipping and soon B’s and C’s were common. Sophomore year was a little better, but I still often felt lonely and wasn’t involved in anything out of school.
Now I’m nearing the end of my Junior year, and I’ve grown so much as a person. I’m a lot more comfortable in my own skin and with my appearance, I’m VERY outgoing and funny at school. I don’t care anymore at all about fitting in with “cool kids”. I still really like dressing well, and people know me for that. However, I’m still lonely. The friends I used to be close to in middle school are now very high up and successful, one is even number 1 in our class, while I’m all the way at 101 out of 446. I’m only in two clubs and I’m not very active in them. I have many acquaintances but not a solid group of friends. I often find myself walking or sitting alone, and I think people get the impression that I think I’m too good for people because of how I dress or look, but that’s not true at all! Most of the smart kids I see around in their little groups of friends, I’m so jealous of and would do anything to be friends with them!
I hate that I’ve let myself steer so far from where I belong, now I feel so lost and unsuccessful, with no true friends. I am nowhere near pleased with my GPA or class rank, and I hate that it’s due to me getting distracted and wanting to fit in, that I’ve gotten those grades. I wish I was in sports, & many clubs, & helping the community, & I wish I would have stuck with the smart, great friends I had before, as well as found more. Now we’re so apart, they’ve all found their niche while I’m the lost black sheep, and no one can even tell because of how confident and funny I act in classes, but really I’m so lonely all the time. I don’t know what to do, and I feel like it’s too late to make a big change.

I’ve had this kit for quite a while.
It’s a Nikon d3000 along with a AF-S Nikkor 55-200mm and AF-S Nikkor 18-55mm VR. I’ve always been interested in Photography and now after spending a few years trying to find my niche in College I’ve decided on being a photographer. What type of Photographer is still up for debate however.
Though I’m finding it hard to make the effort to move forward. I don’t want to enter college courses or attempt to get into freelance photography at a paper somewhere with gear that screams “Don’t take me seriously!”
So do I need to invest in expensive gear to start down a photography career path, or am I exactly where I should be when it comes to gear?
