I am having second thoughts in choosing to having a full time review for the upcoming certification exam in november because my parents are pushing that i should already have a work and at the same time attend the review since it is done only every saturday. would that be fine? I tried sending out few resume but there are still no job offers even after my graduation. Now i don't know where should i be headed for this upcoming month.

thanks your help is appreciated Smile

Dear Akido

Looking at your previous threads, I see that this topic has been plaguing you for some time now.

My good friend, whether one choice would be fine or not, in my opinion, is not written on rock or sand. I regret a reading would not tell you what to choose and if your choice is going to be good or bad.. Oh, yes, some would say I can do a reading for Akido and tell him what will be right or wrong. They are welcome to do so.
I sympathise with you having on one hand the pressure from family and the other hand the economic situation that the world is faced with these days. Whilst I do not really understand your question, or rather your country’s educational system, but from what I understood, I would personally not burn all or any of my bridges. If the said ‘review’ only takes place on Saturdays, then I would strongly suggest that you do that as well as look for a job or when you find one - take it and do both at the same time.

I would keep sending your resume all over the place for the kind of jobs that you are suited/qualified for.

My philosophy would be: in the absence of a job or anything else, I would continue gathering knowledge or doing this review every Saturday. What have you got to lose? When you find your ideal job and it satisfies you so much that you do not wish to continue doing this review every Saturday, then you can easily drop that,  or can you not?

As a point of focus I picked a card for you and I got the Five of Cups.

Now, Fives are state of uncertainty, pain, strife and in a period of confusion, regret and despair. In the case of the five of cups we see a man in a dark overcoat, head bowing and mourning the toppled three cups in front of him whilst totally oblivious of the other two standing upright behind him. This, I feel, is quite indicative of the situation you find yourself in at the moment whereby there is pressure from within and outside of you and you feel you are at an impasse or gridlock not knowing where to go and in that you have given up and, rightly so, as Cups are all about emotions too, you are mourning this period of uncertainty. Please, be aware my good friend, that all is not over. It is not the end by any means. There are still opportunities and chances to come if you would just take a moment from your period of grief and despair and start noticing the other two cups right behind you – the opportunities that will come your way. It will be up to you how you convince and deal with your family’s pressure and this can be done with a mutual understanding and dialogue. But, above all, this is telling you not to give up too soon and not to take your current situation as doom and gloom.

I would like to say: do what you feel is right in terms of the further education (review) and keep sending those resumes out into the field and one day the two cups standing behind you will bear fruits.
I hope this has given you some hope and  the strength to look ahead.

With best wishes.

Thanks for the reading and advice,I just really wanted to hear about others advice to help me make right/better decision and same time to lighten up the pressure my family giving me. I was always worried things wouldn't work right, since i haven't got a job offer so I decided to just review for the exam. I've been hearing comments from my family that makes me just quite sad and bothered from time to time.

I am very sorry to hear that your family is giving you a hard time. I sympathise with you once again my dear friend and if it will make you feel any better and not under pressure (plesae dont be) then you can show your parents what you have sent out by way of job applications. I know they will say, 'do more' and find a job from under the earth...... but... we both know that does not happen.

I feel you may also be the victim of differnce of generation in the way we look at jobs these days.

Iwish you all the best and patience in this situation.

I just do hope and want that I could pass on the exam so I could prove something to them, maybe this might be the key for getting a job. Again thank you so much for hearing me out.
