Starting at the bottom
 
Alot of people do not want to start at the bottom of the company in their first job.

Just a tip for you all - starting at the bottom is not so bad.
Most people start at the lowest company position, and within 1-2 years have moved into a new role.

Within 5 years you could double your income and beyond that, can move into senior roles.

So stick with it and dont give up!

I've never worked on a permanent position, but yes there are opportunities if you stay with a good company long enough.

I completely agree. You can't expect to start as a manager with no experience. I came to Canada 5 years ago and I wanted to be a swimming instructor and a teacher. Well I started as a volunteer first and now I am swimming instructor. It took a lot of time and hard work, I needed a few more licenses and TOEFL but all paid off.

So many people go wrong thinking they can get the highest paying job to start with.
People often give up before giving themself a chance to grow with a company.

If you can get there without hard work, you can get thrown back to the dogs just as easily. If you take time to work your way up you get contacts in the business and get to know people, even if you do lose your job you've got a good foothold to do some networking... Hard work pays off!
