Career development 3d
I have been working part-time jobs after my first degree with no luck of permanent job, I decided to go back and further my studies but still, I delayed my Masters thesis submission with the fear of high Qualification without enough experience, still no luck till ....I worked as an agent for 5 years to take care of my kid while trying to find a job of my Qualifications, till no luck. I got tired of being an agent because of the salary "not commission based" . I decided to go back to school again and now I'm about to submit my Doctorate thesis, still no luck. I'm afraid and I don't have hope for anything anymore but how I'm going to survive next without the busary and salary?

    SEE! That's the dilemma facing people today. No upward path from college.

    I am retired from the I.T. field which was known as Scientific Data ... Processing back in the day.

    Back then you knew you would get with a company and pull down a salary for several years. You were required to give a certain amount of loyalty in years to the company and they would in turn reward you with a pension.

    Because of AI which is disrupting an awful lot of industries, finding that ideal job/position is becoming hard to find.

    Also, the loyalty factor among the younger generation is not there as they feel their time is much more valuable then what a potential employer is showing them and rightly so.

    While a college degree is nice to have, it is NO LONGER a guarantee to a successful career monetarily.

    One must know the pulse and need of the society in which they live and then provide a product or service for it to survive.     more

    Maybe a career coach at the school you attended can be of assistance.

    What is you PhD in? You definitely should look at relocation and contact recruiters. You only have a small chance of getting past the applicant... tracking software- 10% or so. Keep looking. Best of luck. more

    Maybe you're looking for the wrong jobs.
    You can only have what you say from your heart.
    What I mean is this, if you're applying for lets Say an... Administrative Job and your heart is focus on Financial Office, you won't have any because your thoughts are conflicting your actions.

    Have unity in yourself and be determined      more
