Currently, i am taking up a role in new projects coming up for my job, it will get intensive and this is something i am eager about since school has ended in Feb. Initially, i had a dilemma of whether to head out and get exposure or to stay put but, i have thoughts otherwise.
You get exposure, that is for sure when you head out to work and i ask myself this, how much exposure can a company or organisation give to me when they see me as a temp who is sure to go off in a few months time because of NS. They will probably hesitate to choose to involve me in their main operations for fear of implications in performance and/or getting well acquainted with sensitive corporate information.
Perhaps i may get a company out there who will put me on for the money and allow me to get well exposed and prove to them on a favourable basis. At my age, i think equity is a matter of low importance in relative to the value of exposure, no point in having so much exposure but all capped at a low value. Then again, there are not that many companies out there of whom i think will get someone like me directly involved in their main discussions or decision making procedures.
Well, it goes on and on and in the future, i have got to start from somewhere which is why all the more, having a strong education background is an increasing emphasis if you want to be in prime position on the corporate ladder. People look up to you for ideas and get you involved in main proposals, they want to listen to you more than ever. I believe when the going gets realistic, demanding more from within is necessary as the realistic world is not perfect and it's either you've got it or you don't, simple as that. Cheers!
