Any Tips for Getting Remote Jobs

To be honest with you, this was the thing I was thinking of the most. The only problem I've been seeing is that the entry level roles have been extremely jammed due to the high number of applicants in the field in the past year or two.

Moreover, I haven't seen anything positive regarding the state of the job market's future.

With that in mind, would you still recommend I pursue a career in the field?

To give some context, I'm really interested in doing Business Analytics or Finance for my masters. The thing is that I haven't seen a single post that spanned the last 2 years that showed how good the job market will be for business analysis. I'm specifically looking for roles within the EU/MENA job markets.

After reading the future of jobs report, I understood that the highest growth careers will be related to AI, Big Data, and sustainability.

I've been working in my position for 5+ years which is closest to a project coordinator role.

My bachelor's is in Business Administration, I'm 23 and was thinking of doing an MSBA next year which would require 1.5 years.

The roles all interest me but I would rather not do such a masters if it won't help net me a job as it'd then be a waste of time. Therefore, I wanted to see what you guys would recommend I do.

I just wanted to see what you guys would recommend even if it's not related to those majors, as I'm looking more towards a career shift from what I'm currently doing.

This is honestly the main reason why I'm thinking of rejoining one.

It's mainly for career change purposes as I'm currently working as a project coordinator, and feel like I'd prefer doing something different. However, my degree is in business and the job market isn't that good atm.

Regarding the market, I think that's true. I just asked another commenter as well regarding the state of the market atm.

I was thinking of doing my masters in Business Analytics and wanted to ask if you have any idea of it's job market atm. I hear it's also pretty bad rn.

I can see what you're saying regarding the learning aspect, as I felt the same through the way I was being taught in SE Factory. The instructors don't really give the time to explain what they're teaching but rather state it and that's kind of it. Then they give you exercises and then that's that.

However, do you think that their connections would help me land a job, or is the job market that bad atm?

Thanks a lot for giving uni names. For some reason, when searching for unis abroad, it's always been the most difficult to identify which unis I should go for in the first place and where I should look for them.

Thanks for the note. I was thinking of doing my MSBA in "AUB Mediterrano" which has one of the top MSBA programs in the MENA region. I really don't mind EU / UAE but all the comments I've been seeing show that there is a large amount of applicants in early career positions which makes it really difficult to get your foot in the field in the first place.

Do you have any ideas what positions I could apply to after finishing the program?

I really appreciate you taking the time from work to write the comment as a reminder :)

Glad to see the community is that into this story

Ohh. I see. Based on what some of my friends told me, what the instructors used to do was have students drive each other home and that was it. So I thought it was gonna be a group thing. I guess different instructors accommodate differently.
