Stay positive, from my personal experience you will be aligned to a role at some point in near future.

I guess it depends on whether you have a particular preference, related skills etc to any of those subjects. Obviously, D&P, Signalling and Telecoms disciplines may suit someone with electrical knowledge / background whilst the others are more general subjects where most construction and/or industry skills could be adaptable. Any Health & Safety knowledge or experience is of course useful across the board.
