Hi, I just got retrenched from my full-time job as a marketing executive. Should I continue to look for marketing related jobs, or should I focus my efforts on positions related to COVID-19 instead?

I still have a passion for marketing roles but I'm just worried about the stability of the job now. But if I work as a temperature screener or temporary jobs created from COVID-19, it doesn't add much value to my resume. Please help me 🙁

Do you have liabilities? Do you have the luxury to focus on career progression? Is money the most pressing concern as of now?

Answer all these and you know if you should take up that temporary screener job.

Personally, I would think it depends highly on your (i) career goals and (ii) financial health. ...

Currently working as a full-timer, but due to COVID I have to get a new job. I applied for both traineeships and FT related to my field. I got the offer from traineeship, but I’m unsure if I should go for it?

Question related to full-time job and part time degree. Let's say I am working in a firm related to my current part time degree in terms of the industry. Will we see a significant rise in salary once the degree is achieved?

Is working 2 part-time the same as working 1 full-time job despite I'm happier in working 2 part-time jobs rather than dragging my emotions and feeling stress at a full-time job?
