I am not sure what type of psychology I should pursue: general or clinical?
I am currently doing my bachelors in psychology and I don't know whether to pursue clinical or general psychology for post-graduate study. I am interested in working with clients in a clinical setting but I am not sure if I have the marks to pursue clinical over a general registration. My preference isn't resolute so I would be fine becoming a general psychologist as well. However, I am not sure I know enough details about both and how day to day life would be in either of those streams.

OcalaWhat should my next steps be to gain a career path in Human Trafficking Prevention?
Hi, I am currently undertaking an undergraduate in Anthropology and International Development in England and have gained a deep passion for human traffic prevention. I am trying to figure out the right next steps in order to be useful in this field and become more desirable to companies. I am considering a master's in International Human Rights Law, however, this being a LLM, I'm not entirely sure if this is useful considering I am not a law student. Any advice here? I am also considering the internship route, which will help me gain physical experience. I have a desire to work with victims who have recently escaped trafficking, however, is this possible without a social work/care degree? I am the first in my family to study here and would love any advice to get me closer to this field. Thanks :)

When should I start applying for jobs as a final year student? What job boards are useful other than linkedin and indeed? Should i pursue my masters degree or work first?
Hi! I'm a student who's just about to begin my final year in Business and Management in England. From those who graduated, in your experience would it be better to go straight into pursuing a Master's degree or to get work experience for a couple of years before getting into that? :) If it's better to get some work experience, I want to know if now is a reasonable time to begin searching for entry-level jobs? Other than Indeed and Linkedin, what are other websites I can apply to?

OmahaIn Australia, how big is the difference between the *content* of a Bachelor's Degree with Honours and an equivalent Master's Degree?
I understand that Bachelor + Honours degrees typically take 4 years, while Master’s degrees take about 2. But is there a difference in the *content* of these degrees? I'm specifically interested in La Trobe University, but advice about other universities are welcome as well! For reference, these undergraduate vs these postgraduate degrees from La Trobe (which are all health degrees, as upon exiting any of these, you can register with the relevant board and be a practitioner): - Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honours) VS Master of Occupational Therapy Practice - Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Honours) VS Master of Physiotherapy Practice - Bachelor of Social Work (Honours) VS Master of Social Work - Bachelor of Speech Pathology (Honours) VS Master of Speech Pathology There may be better examples from other Australian Universities!

BengaluruMy degree is supply chain management, is it worth it to pursue a masters?
My degree is supply chain management. Is it worth it getting a masters? how much salary increase are we talking? Is it better to go up the corporate ladder and secure a managerial position. Everyone is telling me to get a masters but I am a person that genuinely hates school. Always did. I'm not worried about the money because eventually I will find a way to make big bank. I just feel lately that a supply chain degree alone without a masters is like useless. Also I need top marks in all of my courses if I want to do masters and to be honest I just want to pass and relax and not worry about getting 90's and 80's.
