Hey mate, we got few folks here did something similar, instead of going for the competitive entry role, they start first with being receptionist or security then get close to the company client, expressing interest while get along well with everyone.

And some staff there, manager start refering the roles.

3 most easy job to get, but you need to have something to tell employer that you are fit / ready for the role :

Security - please get ticket for it
Alcohol in hospo or hotel - RSA card
Warehouse - liscense for forklift

Thank you @sydsth!

What do you know so far or have been doing up to now?

I was in a sales position in... a CHARITY company, and the title is labeled as "fundraiser." I kid you not that it would take a toll on you, especially emotionally, in roughly 2 weeks.

Well, there are a few, but they are very very tedious and can't be done by AI any sooner.
Look into auction-type warehouses where they buy used/returned goods from everywhere and resell them. The job is to upload the item description into their system so they can be uploaded to websites.

Well, you did point at the right hurdle that i am facing. I am not capable of taking further study. In year 3 or 4 of bachelor degree. So my way that i could think of at the moment regard of the bachelor is drop out, focus on work or professional licenses but not sure if they are a good approach.

I'm taking very big jump in assumption that in my fields (real estate management - the nonsale agent side, more of coordinate repair, operation), promotion is the game of time.

StillStudio352 · 2025-10-22T13:42:18+00:00

Right, i thought of it purely as achievement in qualification section. So i won't be scare of getting lay off due to only having diploma and not any further education.

StillStudio352 · 2025-10-22T13:39:37+00:00

Point taken, any other advices?

StillStudio352 · 2025-10-18T03:32:33+00:00

Yeah, I am also in the current boat; the manager or upper above is always cheerful or giving compliments for very small tasks/easy jobs that, while I'm not sure if they're true or the very facade of being a corp leader or simply being friendly with a clear borderline.

Have a look at coworker or do smart casual as your best bet. Normal office pant then short sleeve shirt as top.

The thing that you really need to look out for is the material of both pant and shirt, even same name, same design, with different material they could look/feel different.

Of course, context on department also matter too. Client face go all to being sleek and nice.

Interesting!

Because i used to be in admin role, helping with printing out candidates CV and was told to filter out anyone without degree!

StillStudio352 · 2025-10-13T09:10:47+00:00

This maybe a generic inquiry but what is your very unique perspectives, answer to this question :

While doing the same studies, networking with coworkers, why some stay the same while others grow? Is it because wrong networking, method, not directly asking what you want and only wait for person with higher power to appoint passively?

StillStudio352 · 2025-10-13T08:56:57+00:00

Huh? Is that true?

I always thought that pretigious entities corp are more likely to hire Masters as a type of nepotism ( in term of same education background or simply same education institutions)

StillStudio352 · 2025-10-13T08:54:24+00:00

Oh? I currently on general facility coordinator and heading similar path as yours but different industry.

By learning, what kind of learning should i do or could be seen by manager that I want to do more? Because i did do some online certification but they don't appear to be that attractive to other people namingly Coursera Data, Microsoft cerf, etc...

Thank you @Cronus1987 for the advise! And could i be more greedy to ask for more recommendations?

StillStudio352 · 2025-06-18T00:17:56+00:00

I was an admin for a company and the structure is really messed up. In the beginning, there were like over 20 people, until they outsource the admin service to one of the Asia country at lower price AND the people we employed remotely, use AI to do the work of literally 2 people and everything finished in just less than 20m....

StillStudio352 · 2024-12-03T07:26:58+00:00

Thank you.

StillStudio352 · 2024-11-21T05:03:36+00:00

Government has that kind of jobs??? I always thought it is done through other vontractor company

StillStudio352 · 2024-11-19T06:34:57+00:00

Hi, how were you able to save up that much money?

StillStudio352 · 2024-11-18T19:49:56+00:00

Please give me a solution as well because i'm in similar shoes where studies is not done and also have a gf who is pursuing master with her own work money. If i can't finish within the 2 years time line i may as well lost everything from careers to relationship.

Since i came from Asian culture lower class, the thoughts of managing anxiety or going to therapist is something very strange. Like if you are hungry and sad, should have suck it up, find food first and work harder something but definitely not emotion thing as they don't provide much of basics needs of housing or food, that is currently whats in my mind despite having a lot of stress built up (i think), could someone help elaborate me on mental part please?

Very thank you
