Career, life 고민.
Hello.
My situation is roughly like this.
- Early 30s
- Junior college, Electronic Engineering
- Semiconductor field engineer, about 2 years
- R&D, technical sales, about 3 years
- Semiconductor in-house engineer, about 6 months
It's been about 2 months since I quit.
I actually want to reset my life. There are many meanings to it.
If I were alone, I would have done it right away, but I have a family and a girlfriend, so I have to live hard..
I worked like that and honestly, I'm in a state of disappointment now.
I was severely gaslighted in my last company and I made it public and quit.
Actually, those companies were all good companies. I might have been lucky to get in.
When I was a field engineer, I quit because of the boss, although the colleagues were good.
In technical sales, the people were the best, but I left because the company didn't seem to have a vision.
It was because of future salary, marriage, and external appearances.
So I went back to semiconductors, but I met the wrong boss again.
Now that I look back, it seems like my career has become too shallow. It's best to be a mid-career newcomer wherever I go.
Since I'm in my early 30s, it seems like my last chance to settle down.
I recently got accepted at a trading and sourcing company with good conditions, but I wasn't confident, so I canceled my application.
I lied and said I got accepted somewhere else.
* So, I'm currently applying for jobs in familiar fields other than the semiconductor industry.
Company A: Face-to-face interview scheduled (1st round complete)
Company B: Waiting for the results after the 2nd round.
A: Flexible working hours 8-10 to 5-7, own car, 1 hour 10 minutes one way (parking available)
A Korean company, close to a startup, field service engineer, 70% of work outside the office
B: Fixed working hours 10 to 6, public transportation, 1 hour 10 minutes one way (including a 20-minute walk) // (It would be 20 minutes one way if only parking was available, but it's a shame there's no opening.)
A foreign branch that has entered Korea recently, in-house service engineer, 90% of work inside the office
I think both companies are okay
The salary and benefits are at a similar level.
The industries are completely different.
Given my career, both are somewhat suitable.
As a special case
I applied for Company A because they requested an interview first.
With Company B, I felt uneasy because they contacted me again after a month, and I was also unhappy with the interviewer's behavior during the practical interview, and I ruined the practical exam afterward, which lowered my self-esteem a lot. It's sooo intense. ㅠㅠ
Finally, my personal thoughts
If I go to Company A, shouldn't I get a higher salary because it's far and an outside work?
If I go to Company B, the external aspects such as the company title and size are incomparably good, but commuting by public transportation is too much.
A 20-minute walk,,
After writing and reading it all, I don't know if I even want to work now.
If I don't do anything, I feel like I'll be stuck at home forever, more and more.
Should I learn a new skill..?
In the end, I don't have any skills.
I don't know what to do, it's really difficult ㅋㅋ큐ㅠㅠㅠ
