Consulting, Asset Management now what ?!

Hi, I have a question, my story is simple; I got into big 4 , hate it so I went to boutique Consulting was low salary so I quit, had to go to investor Relations was with a REIT, now I’m jobless and it seems quite impossible to find anything after IR job, my financial modeling skills are very low and I’m not big fan of number, yet it’s hard to find a job in IR as I don’t have big experience. I have dual bachelor one in finance an one in real estate from non-target university and a masers from a big Univeristy in NYC. Now I’m cleuless what to do, I accepted an offer in Dubai and it turns out to be a nigmtate, nobody can take me seriously if I plan to go to london or back to nyc. I’m clueless ! I’ve been applying for IB, PE etc but it seems impossible to get an offer
