Four paths I'm thinking about
1. Change job, same city
2. Change job, diff city
3. School, same city
4. School, diff city
Although I've considered it on/off before, this Coronavirus has given me time to seriously consider my career, what I am doing, and what direction I want to go in.
Some background:
- Working at CRE developer for ~1 year
- Worked at RE lender for ~1.5 years (out of school)
- Finished UG with business/finance focus. (weak grades. There's no scaling in the program so degree average is 2.7/4.33, I have 3.1/4.33)
At a high level, I don't enjoy the work I do enough to (i) want to do it for years and (ii) draw any sense of pride/joy/accomplishment from doing it well. Without either of those two, I don't see how I can excel at my job enough to see some modicum of success. Which leads me to consider time for a change in career.
I can either leave CRE and move into something more finance-y or go back to school for an MBA/diff. degree. Job hunting aside, the education route has its own set of problems: (i) what to study, and (ii) grades. I could go back to school and pursue a Msc in Finance/MBA, and continue down the route of business. Or, I could restart with a 2nd bachelors in physics/engineering/maths. Overlaid on that decision, will be the restriction w/r/t my UG grades.
Strewn across this career dilemma, is the lifestyle question of whether I should leave the city I am in and work/live abroad for a few years. Always wanted to do it, but don't really know how to fit it in (if at all) into my life, especially now that I am struggling with what I thought would be a stable career.
