Are You Looking For A Challenging Career?
Singapore is facing the worst ever recession since its independence and based on the latest news, the governement has revealed a few packages plan to boost up the economy to ensure jobs are maintained and new jobs are created.
At such criticial point of time, people who are looking for jobs have only one things in their mind? “Salary” Most of them are worried that their pay will not be as attractive as per last time and some of them are not willing to accept any low paying jobs. So the questions that we should ask is ‘how can we turn the situation to our benefits’
Right now, the banking industry is going down due to lots of negative news around the world and even in Singapore. Other industry such as manufacturing and oil are also slowing down due to the world recession. Hence one must be wondering which industry at these point of time is still surviving? My answer to their questions is ‘Be your own boss by being in insurance industry’
Actually being in the insurance industry does provides lots of career opportunities ranging being a sales consultant to being a manager, managining your own team to ensure new comers achieve the same success. The whole ball game is ever-changing. Not a single moment is boring!
It’s is a global industry and the only one i know of that gives you the opportunity to test a wide range of skills from sales to mathematical analysis, from technical know-how to customer service skills and of course business and management expertise as well. Seriously there are not too many jobs that can provide all of the above.
It is especially in such situation that people needs to be an entrepreneur to set up a business over here with minimal cost. Once the situation gets better, one is ready to reap off the hardwork that he/she has been planting. Just remember that the sky is the limit for your salary and you are your own boss to determine your pay check. Like i have shared in some of my talks: ” The life is yours and if you don’t plan and design it, no one will’
A very challenging aspect of the insurance industry, in my experience, is the ‘cyclical nature of the business and the need to be constantly adjusting strategy to remain profitable at all stages of the market cycles’. So if you think that anyone you know fits in the bill to be a financial consultant, do drop me an email or contact me personally.
