“For major such as mine
(economics), elucidating useful skills
from my study is nebulous.”
Apply for canonical job position that fits into his
major
At the same time, also apply for jobs that
interests him, but is beyond his major
Hopefully I’ll get a job that both interests me and
also pays me well
I’m really reluctant to apply for jobs that I hate
to do
I felt really loss in this life intersection
between study and work
I felt that if I made the wrong
choice now, I would regret
later in my life
