Why nobody want to study and do engineering? All dream to be elite investment banker?
Given law of supply and demand
When very little ppl study engineering, supply of engineering professionals go down.
When supply go down while demand is constant, price goes up so you get good salary!
Investment banker only take in cream of crop ppl from dean list, stanford, havard, oxford and Princeston. Imagine you study so hard in
NTU/
NUS never get dean list, go job interview kanna rejected, end up have to take the low class finance job like banking ops, sell insurance and credit card.
Even if you get into banking ops, also the same fate. You get same type of salary as engineering considering pay per hour.
Worse still, you have to worry that you kanna AXE anytime when recession comes in. Engineering is more recession proof.
Stop and think for a moment. Dont blindly chiong banking and finance.
for example
OCBC's MA program, they make you do online test,sing and dance routine because they receive 1000 resumes for just 10 slots.
Bloomberg's interview got 450 apply for just 15 fresh jobs. And those arnt even elite jobs.
Why nobody wants to do Engineering anymore? All want to do investment banking. Engineering is ok mah?
Elite investment banking = high pay, high competition
Engineering = moderate pay, moderate competition
