What was your first job after you graduated college?

My first job was in a research department of a company. I took that job because I wanted to continue on with research activities since I had spent a lot of time on research during my graduate school years. I like research work, and certainly very much enjoy devoting time and effort to it.

As I declined a lot of job offers, I became a property specialist for 2 months.

After graduating from college, I tried to take the licensure exam but I failed twice so I looked for a place where I can continue my training and I landed a job as a volunteer at a hospital. As a volunteer, you're not really paid at all and you're just there for the experience to put on your resume and to get a certificate that you have trained there so I tried another thing which is Medical Transcription. I enrolled in a vocational course which was about 6 months training and thankfully I excelled in that field and they hired me afterwards to be one of their instructors. Having a medical background, they decided that I can be able to teach and give lectures for the basics of human anatomy and pathophysiology through the guidance of our Administrator. I didn't really "make" something to impress them, I just obediently followed the rules and regulations of the company and have been very flexible with my schedule. I was quite okay with the salary but ever since I got sick, I needed to buy myself medications and the salary that I was earning was not enough for myself to buy medications and budget my needs. I was quite happy with the job and have been in very good terms with my officemates and the bosses but I needed a little more from my income so I decided to try my luck abroad. I stayed there for nearly 3 years and then I went here in the UK, first as a tourist then enrolled in a school and got my visa a year after to study and work part-time here. I was very happy and have enjoyed good memories with my first real job where I embraced the title of an instructor and it wasn't even a very strenuous job at all. If they had given me a raise in my salary I would've stayed because I love the job but they failed to realize that most of my officemates that left were really good employees and they deserve more than what they earn from there.
