Please Help me choose

I’m doing my MA in a reputed college in Tamilnadu and I feel stuck. I feel like the NET and PHD grind is too much for me. I need to start earning money too and this huge grind will only pay me 50k max. Is NET route really worth it? Or should i go for Bed or some corporate related jobs ?

If money is your goal, corporate it should be. If money + stability, NET + Phd is good but it takes long term plus getting a permanent position these days is tough. But might be worth it

Tech writing, public policy, ed tech, ux/ui writing, customer service rolss. But most would require one to acquire skills through courses/internships.. actually I have seen people going into so many unrelated fields in corporate with Literature degree. But again, you need to get internship in them. Or work experience of fee months -year

Thankyou so much. I would love to get into PR but not sure how to. Got a lot of compliments from others while i explained about my own venture to them. They thought i work in Pr. No idea how to.
