About my future JOB

As I said in previous entries, I’m studying public administration in the Universidad de Chile. Therefore, I will be a public administrator. So, in first place I would like to work in the public sector. I will try to avoid the private sector because of I’m not studying to use my knowledge in this area. I would like to start working in a municipality to contribute in the development of my community. After this, I want to sign up in the central government, in others words, working in ministers, intendances, embassies and so on. I love the public affairs. I always read about democracy, kinds of governments, political history, and politic science, that is to say, everything in relation to the public administration.

For obvious reasons, these activities are indoor and you have to work in a desk. However, you could travel a lot if you work in a minister or embassy, due to you should visit developed countries to increase the Chilean welfare. The biggest difficulty to get these jobs is the “contact” or “pituto” in the Chilean way.  Anyway, if you are the best in your area, you will make good contacts or you will be contacted for the government for your inputs to the public administration.

Also, if you don’t have luck to enter to public sector you still can look for a job in the private sector. I’ve always thought that import things from China are a very good idea to make business.
