Speak to more people about hospitality jobs.

You may be looking at it through rose tinted glasses.

It is not as glam or as fun as you think.

I would place my bet on the logistics industry and take up courses to enhance business/marketing/managerial skills.

Good luck to you!

Thanks. But won't it missed a chance to give a sht in sit since I'm only 23? But kind of old after grad too uh..

undiscern It is a risk. Yes, your degree will be too niche for you to use it in the logistic sector. Perhaps you should start a new career in the hospitality line and build up from there.

Unregistered Hotel admin is not an outdoor job.

Do a business degree and stay in your current job. Learn as much as you can about freight forwarding and start a small freight firm in future.

Need advise on which studies path to choose

Hi, I am currently accepted by SIT Bachelor of Science in Hotel Admin.

At the same time, I am working full time in a well-known freight forwarding company after graduate with a diploma and is having a good pay of 2k.

I do like and have interest in events, hotel, kind of a more outdoor job.

But doesn't mean that i have no interest in logistics too. I do have but i thought of trying out something different.

However, the trade off will be huge as if i were to continue working i will gained at least 4years experience in total upon graduation with a part time degree.

But at the same time, i am afraid of the course in SIT would be too niche.

So should I try out something i have interest in or stay in my current job and advance after i have a business deg which seems to be a better choice?

Or just go ahead with SIT full time?

I have two study path to choose:

1) Go for the SIT 2years course
2) Stay in my current job and take part time business degree

So which would be a better choice?
