Should I try auditioning for NijiEN (or others)?
I know the rep that Niji has (otherwise I wouldn't be writing here) and many times I ended up not trying auditioning both because I thought I'm "not applicable" on the streaming experience, and because of the many negative news about some livers and management as time went. I even thought just starting as an indie but due to my current irl situation, especially financially, I find myself thinking of auditioning for NijiEN (primary choice for now) despite all that has happened.
Reason?
NijiEN kinda helped me while I was going down a rough path from late 2019 onwards, so I kinda want to give back something... more to the community than the agency itself since I know very well I can't play the "I can fix it"ππ . The other (primary) reason is that I can't find a decent job where I curently live due to my health (even remote), and I do need urgent money. Even if it's a little, I need to go back to my native country where I used to live because at least in there can get way more help in getting a job that doesn't send me to the hospital every month or two, and also fix my health good enough to make me able to do some other job I was able to do during my high school work experience there.
I know that Niji and Holo want people with streaming experience that I don't have, so I just want to get your opinion in whether I should try anyways or not. If I have the security of getting money in other agencies, I'm ready to audition to most of them in a flash (even tho I should just try one at a time π).
