How can i get the job i want?

I have a similar situation. I passed B-Tech with my fav stream and now I want to be a game developer and thus want to study on graphics and embedded systems. But my guardians wish that I go for M-Tech. I'll have to choose the same stream as my B-Tech because I know other stream is not going to work for me but this stream is not going to help at all in my dreamt game developer career. Although my guardians didn't pressurized me tht much and asked for my choice. I told them my wishes but for the time being I'm walking on the path of their wishes to make them happy. But I know after I passed my master degree, neither of the jobs I get will be of my choice (I won't mess it up though as I'm quite good with this stream), but I'm not giving up my hope. After or in the middle of completion of my master degree, if I get any chance to join the stream I wish for, I'll go for it. I've made my mind tht I'll reach the destination I wish for. I recommend u also to focus on ur dream. Ur dream will come true only if u make it come true. If u get any chance of studying ur favourite stream then go for it.

You have two choices: go back to school and study a field that you have interest in and will be successful at, and possibly alienate your mother, or continue in a field you don't like and will probably never suceed at, and probably resent your mother for imposing her will upon you. Parent should want their children's happiness above their own desires. They should not live vicariously through them. Sometimes we have to upset those we love, to reach our own goals, and hope for their forgiveness. If she is allowed to run your life now, it will always be so, just because you are afraid of her disapproval. You must speak up and let her know you are unhappy, often relationships ARE complicated, it's part of life.

Sounds like now that you are an adult, you need to go back to school and pursue a degree in what you enjoy. if you finished college 6 years ago, you're more than likely in your mid to late 20's and your mother should have no say in what you do with your life now. She shouldn't have had a say to begin with, but that's in the past and can't be changed. It saddens me that parents still try to force their children to pursue careers that they dislike. I couldn't imagine making my child go into a career that would only make him miserable.

you must try a lot to find it.

why not get any job, just for temporary just to save some money, then go to school again, even take a vocational course. why not try go to abroad like hongkong or canada. just check www.go2canada.com

Chosing a job and getting that job is very hard. Instead we can be satisfied with the job what we got. I am a bachelor graduate and was on my computer education when I got a call from a concern. They offered me to come for an interview with them. I dont want to discontinue my studies but still went to that concern for an interview and got through it. I was placed in that concern with a very low salary which I thought was too high for me at that time. After three months, I found that I am low paid for the work I do and the management is gaining a lot through my work. I started hating my job and wanted to quit, but unfortunately I was on a bond to work for two years. So I was forced to continue there. Though I dont like the job, I never failed in the responsibilities not even once. I continued the same way, and soon in another six months I was promoted to the next level and apprised. At that time also, I thought of quitting the job at the end of my bond. Then after a year, I was promoted as the Team Leader and was heading a team of forty. Still I thought when would that BOND END day come. After two years, I was the Assistant Manager of that concern and thought if I quit then it would affect the concern and so stayed there itself. The Line of Job I am working is not at all related to the graduation I did. But I did come up in LIFE with that concern. So always love whatever JOB u get and try to flourish there.

I know how you feel because i've been through what you're experiencing now.I finished a degree and to top it I also passed the board exams but was never happy.I had a previous jobs related to my career but I resigned because of health reasons.Now I'm happy making a career related to computers,aiming to build a website.

There's always a chance of getting a job. It is like a second job trying to find one--it takes some work to find the right one. The right job is out there for you--just keep looking for it and trying new jobs out. Eventually, you will find one that you like. It is hard though, when you are trying to please other people. I understand that.

a lot of people are successful even if they are not on their field. one of the example is my boss he is our sales and marketing manager but he finished civil engineering. itsj ust that he really loves selling thats why he excel. if you love your job then am sure you will be successful. just try to do what you really want. forget about what the other people would say.it's your life and you will be the one to handle it not the other people.

Don't be afraid to try. If you don't get accepted, take it as a learning experience. There are a thousand companies out there and there will be surely be a company that will hire you. If you're not happy with what you finished in College, use it first then save. You can be a part-time student and take up the major/course that you really want. That way, you make your mom and yourself happy.

You should register Timesjob.com and can get top job.

when i was still studying i was so perceptive of the real world. after graduation, i realized the real world sucks! especially for me- coming from a third world country. you will never get the job you want unless: 1. you're from an expensive school 2. you have good family background 3. your family is known 4. you have friend/relative working in the HR dept of the company you want to apply for 5. you're good lookng (crazy but true) 6. you're lucky good luck!

I am in the same situation as yours.I graduated from my college this year,and found a job as a sales assistant, though I didn't like this job but I have no choice,for my major was not popular.Afer about 4 months,I left that company .But I am the only one who has a college degree in my familly.So they expect so much on me that I feel a great pressure.Until now I am still jobless but I keep learning something to prepare for the position that I dream for,and I believe that after several months with pressure or even paid,I will find a suitable job. And,you too!

You shouldn't do things you don't like. You shouldn't graduated in a field you are not interested in. My parents never told "you will be a medic" or "you will do this because that's what I want you to do" or "you will be rich"... Every father or mother wants their sons to have a great life, a great ( and rich ) girlfriend/boyfriend, but sometimes it isn't that way. Would you change your mate just because your parents don't like him/her? I don't think so. You shouldn't do it...

i do believe that you can do well anyting if you want.the point is you dont like you present job, how can you do well. so making your choice now, don't hesitate again.

What kind of mother do you have. A mother should be proud of you no matter what you decide to do. Not only that, but also if you want do something else so long as you happy that is something that count

hi there, don't get too demoralised first ya? first of all, maybe you could feed us with more information like what field you did for your college degree, what field are you good at before any of us can make a comment right? first of all, i should say that you should have talked to your mum on the choice of study that you would like to, maybe she would agree? secondly, even though you may not have the required experience in the field that you like, you could still get the relevant experience, after all, all of us started off without any experience in anything isn't it? however, your employers may not give you what you would expect if you do have the paper in that field. don't give up, keep trying. ;) also, you could try going for part-time courses on the field that you like and get the paper on your own expenses as a form of upgrade too. this would also eventually lead to you being able to find a good job with good pay in the field that you like. ;) well all the best in your future.

I think you should be honest with your mother and explain to her that you went to college in the field she wanted you to do and that you are not happy with it and that you did it for her but your not happy doing it im sure your mom would be happy on whatever you want to do.im sure that you will get a good job you just have to keep exploring your options.

Just do hard work, prepare well, search internet for vacancy and well do at interview. Be confident and never loose hope.

Usually you would, ideally, major in a field you eventually want to work in...but this doesn't always happen. The degree just represents that you have a higher education and doesn't necessarily limit you to that field when you go in the workforce. Just look for an entry level position in whatever you want to do. Once you build up a work history your degree won't matter because they will look at you experience. BTW, what did you major in and what do you want to do?
