Haunting_Pick_9969's journey

I graduated from a non-target top 10 university in my country, hoping to build a strong career. I initially got pigeonholed into pensions advisory, which wasn't what I envisioned for myself. To change my trajectory, I decided to attend a target school that ranks in the top 5 globally, thinking it would help me lateral into a better role. After graduating, I landed a job in fund administration, but the market was terrible, and I ended up with a 40% pay cut compared to my previous position. To make matters worse, I was diagnosed with an incurable disease that drains my energy unexpectedly. At this point, I'm seriously considering quitting before my probation ends. This feels like one of the worst career falls I could have imagined.
