Been taking a career break of 1.5 years for mental break and decided to get back to the workforce. Will there be any concern(s) from prospective employers beside knowing what I did during this period?

Didnt take up any specific courses for upskilling. Just mostly reading books and volunteering for various social causes during this period.

It's understandable. I don't think it should be a problem...

Is it ok to take a career break of 6 months or more for mental wellness or is that a red flag to prospective employers?

Im a 21 years old with a 1.5 years old kid. taking full time degree as of now. I have a total Savings of 180k as of now. I sell stuff online ..getting revenue of 10k a month. Bto coming in 2023. Any good investment or saving plan I can consider?

I am a 3rd-year Business School student and I have yet to decide what sort of career path I want to take. Should I be worried?

I know vaccines take years before they ready for the public to use. Given that biotech companies across the world are scrambling to find one for COVID-19, how long do you think before we get one?

I'm 16 and taking my O levels this year. I'm an average kind of student - not the smartest but also not bad in studies. I want to get into local uni but don't know which is better for me - jc or poly?
