Last year has vitnessed the financial crisis happened in our world.Since that, the problem of empolyment has become a major issue for many job-seekers, even for the states and governments.
I am a junior student major in economics and facing two choices, the one is entering society to get a job, mostly the job are not the one we satisfied with, the other is to take part in the entance exams for postgraduate schools. If i can pass it, i can receive further education for several years.
Do you have the same problem? If you have, please share your idea with us. Thank you.
Have a good day.

Hi, norah, I think you should work first. As a Chinese, I think you know clearly the aim government encourage us to study continuously. - It cause diploma devaluation.
In another way, tt seems find a job harder and harder these days. - Just think how many people can get their satisfied job indeed. Job is just job. Employers prefer the person who are experienced.
But yes, everything is possible, maybe you can get a good job after you get higher diploma.
And all of this are just my own opinions.

Thankyou for your opinion shared with me.
Even finding a moderate job seems to be difficult for us. In domestic market, the supply of jobs is inadequate to meet the demand. As a job-seeker, I think the only thing to prove myself is just the diploma. I went to the job fairs yesterday, many people are PHD. Nothing could surprised me more than that.
The situation is really not optimistic.

Actually if you would have asked this two years ago, I would have told you that i already have a job but if I could further my education at the same time, I would do it. I am not unemployed and going to school and I despise it. My beau and I decided that since I wasn't able to get a job then I needed to do something about my education. I am currently going back to school for my RN, and possibly changing majors because of my health. I just wish i had a job. I just don't feel me going to school is being very productive for my family. We have 8 kids between us and one income is just not enough. I try very hard to be patient with our situation. We are just barely comfortable right now. So yeah, I would rather have a job, even part time than to go to school.

Thank you for your experience shared with us. It is a little surprised that you have so many kids. Raising a child is hard, i think you are a great mother.
Perhaps finding a job is the best choice for a young people who want to be independent. My parents want me to further the education and have a chance to get a better job after I graduate in the near future. No matter what to do, I think i have to fight for my future. No pains,no gains.
Thank you sincerely for your opinion.
Please say hello to your big family for me.
Have a good day.
