Is Gender and Women's Studies a course that can get me career opportunities right away?
I am currently a year 10 student who is very passionate about law (specifically how culture, tradition, and history has affected the modern legal system). I was thinking (actually my mom and I) of taking this course since my mom said that it was in demand, it suited my talents and skills, and it is a specific field in law. My concern is that I wouldn't be able to find a job after completion of the course and the only way I can study law is by supporting myself. I have already checked on school websites that provide the course and the said job opportunities, however universities only say that because they provide the course and need students to take it. People who finish 'unique' courses rarely get jobs right away because other individuals are highly professional in those fields, leaving the newbies no hope (truth be told). I am also aware that finding a job is not easy and everybody starts off from below, however if I'm going to end up that way until I reach the age of 30 (because of the course I took), I'd totally regret taking the course. I am interested to know about any other pre-law suggestions. #law #career-education #women-in-law

What can I do to stand out in today's working world?
With competition only getting stronger by the year, I'm afraid that by the time I graduate college, it will be extremely hard to get a job in the field I want to go into- Economics and Finance. What other academic opportunities (other than and undergrad degree) can I pursue to make myself stand out to potential employers? [If you have advice specific to my field, that would be very appreciated] #career #college-major #career-development #employers #college-graduate #career-education
