It seems like I am back to pondering the question that's been sitting on my mind for the last year or so..
Do I go to university or not?
I was on a work course today where I meet other staff members from other stores and one stood out as we have a common interest.. Journalism.
She is a trained journalist, so we got talking when we was on a short break and I started asking her questions such as did you go to university, is it worth it, blah blah blah and interestingly enough she told me it isn't worth it.
As society is now and the current job market, people don't look at your qualifications, they look at your experience. I knew this before but hearing it from a trained journalist was very interesting because she told me the same thing.
She's come out of university with a very good degree (I expect that she's not long finished uni and has had no luck in getting a job in the industry) and so she's had to resort to getting a job that has nothing to do with what she's trained in.
So yes, I am back to my original question and my thoughts have changed - once again (typical girl stereo-type) and am now wondering whether this gap year will change into going back into full time education or going down the work path, which has always been on my mind and I feel will suit me better.
I have a national diploma in Journalism, is this all I need now to make it to the career that I dream off?
Research has once begun and Google is now my best friend.
