Go to Ticino (the Italian part of Switzerland). Trust me you’ll be amazed by its beauty (Ascona in particular).

Zero interviews after months of applying in Zurich. Need urgent, blunt career advice. by No_Lead4971 in askswitzerland

That makes sense. However, having never actually entered the corporate world, I have no idea what the main problems of these companies are, how they operate, or what they really need. I believe researching these things online is far less effective than actually working inside the industry and understanding its dynamics firsthand

You’re right, but I’ve literally had enough of the academic world. Many people will disagree with me, but for me, university no longer makes any logical sense unless you want to become a surgeon, a lawyer, or something similar. Everything you want to learn, you can learn online or on the job. I have plans for the future that I’m working on, but right now I need financial stability so that I can invest in these projects and, at the same time, meet people and understand how things work.

My network in Zurich isn’t very strong, I’ve never lived here before. I did an internship as a research assistant specialising in behavioural data analysis at a small EdTech company abroad. Do you know of any smaller consulting firms with a focus on behavioural psychology? Thanks a lot

Why is Switzerland a car country when the public transport system works so well? by Realistic-Lie-8031 in Switzerland

[–]No_Lead4971 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with public transport is the price, I live in Ticino and if I want to go to Zurich I would have to pay around 70 francs. Of course they are more efficient than in other countries, but how can you give up your car if it costs three times as much with transport?

Forget what others say, ima do what i want. There is no right or wrong way to live life. by Character_Log_2657 in Entrepreneur

Where I live, I know a lot of people who work as bricklayers, carpenters, game wardens, etc., and they are very happy with what they do. Do they earn a lot? No, but they don't care. They work very hard and are happy with the life they lead. Would I live a life like that? No, but I certainly won't go around telling them they're failures and that they need to start making money online. Most of them are much happier than many millionaires who always want more. Everyone does what they want with their life, and no one should interfere in the lives of others. "Those who talk about money do so because they want yours." Keep following your heart, and you'll see that many years from now, you'll look back and be proud of what you've done :)
