【Original】Are you ready to work in Iran?
Thread Content
On this BBS, I once conducted a voting survey; among the 135 people who participated, 83% chose to change jobs. Of those 83%, the vast majority said they wanted to change jobs but were unsure which company would be suitable for them. This is indeed a thought-provoking issue. Since I have been paying attention to the energy industry, I came up with this title: Ready to work in Iran? China’s three major oil companies have had long-standing contacts with Iran (initially mainly CNPC and SINOPEC), and nowadays, the competition on a global scale is an established reality. The intricate strategic interests involved are far from as simple as we might imagine. Once the project is launched, there will be a slight shortage of industry management professionals and production technology experts. Of course, many energy cooperation projects are top-secret in the initial stages, but as long as there is no conflict, you still have a chance to go there if you work in this industry. Are you ready to work in Iran?
I think personal safety is the top priority! The situation in Iran won’t stabilize in just a day or two!
If the salary is insanely high, one can take the risk
One’s life is the most important thing; if you’re not 100% sure, it’s better not to risk it. To a place like that, I won’t go even if I’m ready. However, the topic discussed by LZ is indeed a problem – there are always higher mountains to aim for, yet the path to reach them remains unknown.
It’s better not to go; if you lose your life, you’ll have nothing left. Those who are adventurous enough can give it a try, thinking of it as a trip abroad
It takes some time to build up experience, such as half a year to a year. But the current situation is a matter of concern for many people; the risks are high, so it’s better to think things through carefully!
Life is precious; with a family to support, who will take care of your wife and children if you’re not here? And who will look after the elderly?
Society is already quite impetuous these days, and with the chemical industry remaining relatively booming in the past couple of years, it’s only natural that many people want to change jobs. It is normal for people to move around, and it is beneficial for both ** and the industry; but if too many people move around, that’s not good. After all, the petrochemical industry is a capital- and technology-intensive sector, and any enterprise needs to have a relatively stable workforce.
I think life is an adventure, a gamble; sometimes you have to take a risk. There are opportunities in Iran! !
I guess most people who want to change jobs wouldn’t think of moving to Iran; there are few adventurous people these days.
That’s right, personal safety should come first; it’s so scary!
The situation can also be a factor, and opportunities are of course reserved for those who are willing to take some risks! Is the risk of war really real? I don’t think there are any really, so I believe going to Iran is another great opportunity! Mainly, Iran lacks talent in the chemical industry; there are many opportunities! If such an opportunity arises, I would still like to give it a try!
The top priority is personal safety, and the second is money
It’s worth going; if there’s a war, the Chinese embassy will notify us in advance!
If there is an opportunity and the compensation is high enough, I would like to go. 1. Safety is relative; there are always elements of insecurity everywhere. 2. In the event of a large-scale war, there will be warnings, allowing enough time for evacuation. 3. The Iranian people are relatively friendly toward Chinese people, which is a very important factor. 4. There, there is a vast space to showcase one’s talents.
I’d rather stay in the evil new China. First of all, my life won’t be in any danger, and secondly, the environment is more suitable to me. We are currently in a temperate zone, while Iran is in a tropical and subtropical zone. Not only would I be unable to find work there, but I’d also suffer from heatstroke every day. I won’t go :lol :lol This post was last edited by bingyu252 on 2008-1-10 at 13:04
Some of our employees work in Sudan, and they indeed earn a good amount – around 20,000 RMB. They are allowed to go home for family visits once a quarter, with all flight costs covered. But the climate in Sudan is really not something that ordinary people can tolerate; it’s unbearably hot, and any extra money earned comes at the cost of draining one’s health ahead of time – at least that’s what I think. Moreover, the factories there are surrounded by troops maintaining order, so it’s a very chaotic place.
The income is quite substantial; one can earn over 20,000 in a month! A friend of mine has been there!
It’s still necessary to have solid skills, and at least to know one or two foreign languages, in order to have a better chance of going abroad.
If 20,000 per month is enough, there’s no need to take risks. Iran still has its share of instability, so one shouldn’t think only of themselves. There are indeed opportunities in Iran, but one’s own life is what matters most; don’t take risks if you’re not sure about the outcome. If you go, your family will be very worried about you. Although they may say they support you, they’re still concerned. If something happens, it will be too late to do anything. Some people who have no power or are poor can still lead happy lives. Work is part of life; it depends on how one manages their work in daily life. It’s possible to earn 20,000 in a safe environment as well. As long as you have skills and talents, you’re like gold – as long as you know how to make use of them and seek opportunities, I believe that talent won’t go untapped!

It seems that the main reason for going abroad is to study, and most people go to developed countries; going to Iran feels a bit like being exiled, haha
