If you have already graduated...

5. What is your degree in?
BA in Geography, and an MA in Social and Cultural Geography.

6. Did you find a job that is relevant to your degree?
Erm, kind of. I work as a health services researcher, so the social research elements were very relevant. There are also some significant geographical elements too to some of the work, so yes large parts of my degree were relevant.

7. Is that job as fulfilling as you thought it would be?
In general yes. I'm going through a bit of a slow period at the moment with relatively little to do, but generally yes its a fulfilling job.

8. Did your schooling properly prepare you for said occupation?
Kind of yes, but the kind of research work done as a career is at a whole other level compared to degree level.

9. Hindsight can be both wonderful and terrible sometimes. Do you wish you had chosen a different topic of study?
Not a different topic of study no. I might have taken a different career path altogether though.

10. If you like your occupation, YAY FOR YOU!
It has its moments yes.

11. If not, will you go back to school for something else?
Might do a PhD in connection with work in the near future, but that would be part of the development for my current job.

12. Did you go to school right after high school or did you wait a while until you figured out what you wanted to do?
Right after school.

13. If you waited ... do you feel this is directly related to your feeling fulfilled in your occupation?

14. Any advice for the ones currently still in school?
Enjoy your time there, cos it goes very quickly, then you are out in the real world! (unless you do what I did and get a job in a university)
