[QUOTE="Truecoconut, post: 218261, member: 42434"] Hi. This is an unusual situation. I’m not a lawyer/Solicitor but my son is. He has finished his training contract but was not retained by the company. He qualified in corporate finance. He has spent the last year being my carer after a transplant surgery. My issue is that he keeps telling me that I don’t understand how corporate finance works anytime that I want to speak with him about his job hunting. I really know zilch about it. He has struggled to get a job in his area of qualification and want to suggest that he retains in another area that he’s interested in. My question is whether this is possible? I don’t want to get into a chaotic discussion with him without understanding what is possible. I’d be grateful if anyone could explain this to me please. I’d also appreciate it if anyone in similar circumstances would be willing to share their experiences. I just want to be of help to him especially after he has looked after me for a whole year while I recover from the surgery. Thanks in advance [/QUOTE]
