Hmm... went for the second interview conducted by Prudential after work yesterday... With a hour of explanation by the financial services director, and a couple of questions posed by me... My enthusiasm for the job sort of dwindled due to the way this guy presented, he was too pushy or too bent on getting me to sign on to the job...This actually cause me to be wary about what actually this jobs entails... Really lost.. wonder if i should join or not.... Sounds like easy money
Couldn't find some experienced advice as my aunts and parents are away on holiday.... how I wish I could get some decent advice..
Well, called Ming and talked to him since he is in the business. After talking to him, my interest in the job dwindled even further... His view was that this is a commitment job where you have to stayed at this job for a long time since your eventual clients trust you thus they sign their policies with you.. which I find is exactly true... Furthermore, he also said that this jobs has a hude vicious cycle, why the huge recruitment is partly due to the lack of new leads from the older staff thus targeting undergraduates who is coming out to work, provides a better platform..
I somehow believe that I should be able to make it in this line for the 1st year or so but I know myself very well that I would want to switch after some time as this job would not provide me the satisfaction I want... I dun envisioned myself doing sales the whole time and furthermore working in the financial services industry...
Dilemma of having easy money or working your socks off to make a decent living...?
Guess I will have to ponder about it myself (since my confidants are away overseas or busy with work) even though I would appreciate if there were more views.... got to reply them by this coming Sat..
