With your local uni degree, you should go for a cushy civil service job instead. Better pay and iron rice bowl.

Thanks for the advice. I want to join for the passion and hope the money comes later. I'm not fussed about glamour, in fact I do like the nature of the work because it's challenging and impactful.

I'm not interested in civil service for the above reasons that I don't get a sense of purpose from it and I don't have a good degree class, don't want to be stuck halfway through my career prime knowing I can never rise above a certain glass ceiling. At least in private sector you can still fight it out.
