Hi all!
Not sure if I have posted in the correct section but I was looking for some advice or opinions on my decision to pursue further study after I qualify my training contract.
I am currently a second-seat trainee at an international firm at the City. However, I have always had the thought of pursuing higher education (postgraduate studies) some time in my life. As I am currently busy in my training contract, the only feasible time to pursue further education would be after I qualify (as opposed to working as a NQ for a few years and then taking a break for study).
However, I am unsure how this would be viewed by a) my current firm and b) future employers. This decision may seem arbitrary but it has been something I have always wanted to pursue as I have been fond of researching my areas of interest in further detail.
I would therefore appreciate it if anyone could provide their views or perhaps personal accounts if you know or have found yourself in this situation?
Many thanks in advance!
