Urgent ! Help A Friend!! Career Decision Confusion by engrJAAB: 3:38pm On Nov 05, 2018
My friend is very excited but confused right now. He is a high flyer and intelligent guy. He needs to make a decision between scholarships, admission and jobs.
He is a young man with a simple family (a wife & kid). He has a BSc and MSc in the engineering field. He is very open to working in the academia or industry.

See the breakdown of choices below. Pls advice him sincerely like a friend/brother. I will also read through and give him my opinion too.

1. Secured a Fed govt scholarship for PhD study in germany (Due 2019). Currently still seeking admission/approval from supervisors.

2. Already received 2 admission offers from Univ in Australia but no scholarship. Currently applying for an Australian govt scholarship. (Due 2019)

3. Received a job offer from a multinational oil servicing company (Salary like 450k). To reply before October 2018 ending.

He has a moral constraint in taking the Job offer if he intends to leave in maybe 6 months for his studies. Should he forget about PhD and take the offer to grow and be a top professional or leave the job and focus on his studies.

I am sure you see his confusion now. Abeeggiii make una help am oooo.

With all I've read; you/(your friend) is neither a high flyer nor an intelligent guy.

Advancing one's self is a form of survival and survival is a primal instinct.
I've never heard anyone consider moral constraints in this fight to survival.

The scholarships are not certain. You can't base the dream of a PhD on the probability of external funding.
The only thing certain right now is your salary, plan with it and actualize your dream.

Do what is right for your future.
