I’m hoping to get sincere advice; I want to change careers
Thread Content
I have a bachelor’s degree; I graduated in 2010. My home is in Inner Mongolia, and I’ve always wanted to return there to develop my career, as I want to be closer to my mother. I spent my four years in university in Heilongjiang, so I applied to the Bank of China on a try-it-out basis, and eventually received an offer. Living closer to home, the salary there is also much higher than what one could earn by starting as a worker in a factory in my field of study. I feel that a bachelor’s degree doesn’t actually teach one that much; it’s not impossible to change careers, but I still have some doubts. I hope those who are experienced in this area can give me some advice
I haven’t started working yet; it can’t be called changing careers. After graduating, no matter what job one takes on, one has to start from scratch in most cases. Working in a bank is great – it’s very difficult to find such a job these days
I also want to change careers; many of my friends have this intention as well
Congratulations! The benefits at the bank are indescribably good. Moving from the chemical industry to banking – how can one succeed in doing that? The original poster should share some experience. It’s meant to help marine enthusiasts in difficult situations learn from it.
If what the original poster is referring to are permanent job positions, then working at a bank would be great – the benefits are much better than those in a chemical plant, it’s also closer to home, and the working environment is good. It’s really enviable
In cases like this, it really comes down to how you view things. I don’t think other people’s suggestions are that important; it depends on what you prioritize – future development or something else. Take some time to think it through carefully. Wishing you success!
First of all, congratulations – the bank is really good. I don’t think you need to feel guilty. As 2L said, not having a job yet doesn’t count as changing careers. Even in the chemical industry, the little professional knowledge acquired in university is far from enough; it’s better to forget about it.
Where in Inner Mongolia are you from, OP? . I’m from Chifeng~~ It’s not really considered a change of career either; no matter what job you take on, it’s almost like starting from scratch. It might seem easier if the job is related to your field of study. There’s not much complexity in terms of professionalism required in banking. My uncle is now the section chief at the Industrial and Commercial Bank in Baotou. He started working there after graduating in a science-related field. Living near home is indeed a good idea; there’s nothing special about working elsewhere. Overall, the benefits offered by banks are pretty good, and there’s not much need for overtime either. Although you can’t earn a lot of money, it’s sufficient to live a stable life. . Wish the original poster luck! Don’t be afraid of change; by starting from scratch with dedication, things will improve quickly~~
If you just want to live a stable life without aiming to achieve anything great in your career, then go to a bank – it’s a good option!
Do what you love and be dedicated to it. . . It doesn’t matter whether the major is relevant or not; what’s important is one’s own future development.
Based on what the original poster has described, it depends on one’s interest in the field; if that interest is strong, it’s recommended to consider other options； If it’s not very intense or doesn’t matter much, it’s recommended to go to a bank; after all, banks offer a comfortable and cost-effective environment, and you’ll realize this after working there for some time. I support Inner Mongolia
