sales or wait for an automation job ??help ??

(OP)
i am a fresh grad , electrical engineer very passionate about control  , plc , scada systems but where i am living  (egypt), u cant find a job easily ,and i found on which is in  the field of sales and for big multinational company that will require from me to travel , s i do i leave my dreams of working in automation field for this , since the main question is if i put my self in sales field there is no turning back to the technical one and i am not a fresh grad an more am i right or what ??  

RE: sales or wait for an automation job ??help ??

I didn't make it through your post because of the ungrammatical texting, which, for me, is work to translate.  So I don't.

But I'll give you my answer based on your readable subject line.  

My answer would be to wait for the automation job, poor communications skills like texting will be a big negative in sales, unless you meant cell phone sales or teenage apparel sales.  

RE: sales or wait for an automation job ??help ??

I agree with previous poster. Do not use texting in a written medium like this. Upper case is easily available on the keyboard and there is also a comma and full stop. Perhaps even a question mark?

If you live in a country where an assistant job in a maintenance shop isn't regarded as a personal failure after graduatuion (there are still such cultures), then I recommend that you apply for such a job. You will learn lots and lots that you weren't taught in school and if you are the right person, you will be able to blend your knowledge from school with the experience from the floor and turn into a useful and respected engineer.

Where are you situated?
