Hey guys, I was pondering the idea to make a thread like this just for the purpose of resource. It would be interesting as well.

Could everyone post details of their profession.
-job title
-brief job description
-Tertiary qualifications acquired to hold aforementioned title
-company you work for
-hours
-Company benefits
-How much paid leave do you get annually?
-Work-life balance
-Salary(Only if you dont have a problem or dont mind disclosing actual amount). Even a vague salary range would be ok.


It would be interesting. Please post guys! Dont feel shy. Please keep it neat with titles like the ones above. You can add other titles if you like as well.
I want ALL myBB members to participate.

I appreciate all of your input and participation, and I would not be able to express my immense gratitude eloquently enough.

Agreed - it looks like cheap and nasty ploy for some head-hunting, labour recruiting agency ... with loads of PM's to suck in the unsuspecting :eek:

Why does it matter then? Most people don't work in their field of study and things such as salary and employer are best kept confidential. Otherwise it turns into a pissing contest of who earns more at which company.

For your career path you have these options:
- do what you enjoy
- do it for the $$$
- do it for both (good luck finding such a job)
