Post 5: My Future Job

I think that to talk about the kind of job that I would like to have is a little bit prospective, meaning, to think about a future relatively far from me, because immediately I think about a stable job and denying the partial jobs: its conditions and experience that I had in these partial jobs that I had.

Anyway, if I start to think about this ideal job that I would like to have, I’m imagining it related to my career. Well, everybody knows that I’m studying sociology, so I want to work as it. Once I finish my studies in sociology, I want to migrate to Valdivia, a city located in the south of Chile in the XIV Región de Los Ríos, about 750 km from Santiago de Chile. In Valdivia you can find Universidad Austral, one of Chile's seven original traditional universities. I have a vocation for teaching and investigation, I like when other people learn and acquire new knowledge, and if I am an instrument for that, It's an honour for me. So, the kind of job I would like to have is in the education area, to train persons being a teacher, to contribute like a researcher in a multidisciplinary team work of any topic of sociological studies. However, I think that to be a teacher in a university is a very competitive area.

I think that it isn’t very important in my preferences about outdoors or indoors in the way of my job, but I would prefer a mixture about this. Probably, I often travel in this job, because the academics usually give several lectures in other universities. Finally, I think that this ideal job will use a bit of time in an office, but it isn’t a problem for me.
