I have a bachelor's degree in Philosophy. What kind of work can I do? (Italian, 29 yo btw).
>>34845190you degree won't give you a specific job outside of a professor.what do you want to do ideally? you need to give more context. are you wanting to make money or enjoy your workload?ai has a high chance of taking jobs especially useless ones that require a degree. i'd say robotics, some engineering/ai centered, medical (always in demand), lawyer and psychologist are the safest.if not look for what's in demand in italy.
hey philosophy boydemonstrate the utility and speak to the truth of why i need to purchase this pen
>>34845248I am a philosopher not a salesman
Go into law school.
>>34845207The problem is that I don't have an ideal job. In any case, I value the enjoyability of the work more than the salary itself. The sectors you mentioned don't seem to have much to do with philosophy—lawyer, for example.
>>34845190Do a masters in something to get a job position. You can do anything from teacher to spokesman, salesman, management. The greater problem is not knowing what exactly do you want to work as. Try to look into job positions and research what their day is like, but you need a masters to fully home into that.
>>34845274neither, actuallyyou've read some books
>>34845317And i've forgotten most of them
>>34845190philosophy isn't a subject unto itself it's more of a fundamental building block of other subjects the entire goal of philosophy is to get you out of philosophy .... get the epistemic framework down and then build paradigms ontop of it like what they did with modern science. although i seriously doubt colleges' ability to teach philosophy at all maybe the ivy leagues are the only exception.
>>34845324Have you at least gotten a sense of them? When you intuitively read you understand most of it when you don't remember details.
>>34845303im guessing you've never worked before. there's gonna be at least 10% of bullshit in any job. if you think you can make your degree or hobby fit into a job, you've fallen for a boomer trope - if you work your passion you'll never work a day in your life.at some point you're going to have to try on coats to see what you enjoy because you seem inexperienced. even though you got a useless degree, the truth is, 90% of degrees have nothing to do with the job.if i was in your shoes i'd start making a bucket list of what seems enjoyable then give each one a deep dive to see what people like about it, complain about it, the pay, work culture, etc... then narrow it down from there. you probably won't get #1 unless you're dead set (which sounds like you're lost). don't put all your eggs in one basket.i'm guessing italy doesn't have the best job market rn anyways.
