Should I apply for graduate school or just find a job?
Answer
Editor's pick

It depends on your plan and consideration for your career and future. In most cases, grabbing a master degree will elevate one' salary in the future (as shown in some labor economic analysis ). However, money is, and should not be the only thing to care about, you also have to think through your personal interests, ability and economic budget before deciding to apply for a graduate program or finding a job.

I think the most important thing is that you have to be clear with your plans for career development. If you believe a higher education degree is vital to improve yourself and to better prepare for the job you want, then maybe you should try to get a master degree. However, if you feel that the job you want don't require a master degree and it demands you to accumulate experience in workplace (like human resource, sales, education, etc.), then maybe you should begin working first. Anyhow,there's no single answer to this kind of question, every coin has its two sides and you just decide on which is more important for you. 

HOPE my suggestion will be helpful for you~

I just read a report of Economists, reported that in a lot of students trying to pursue grades even they have gotten high grades. Nevertheless, the standards that those corporations need didn't change a lot. Simply put, not only should u go on learning but also u have to gain some experiences.

It depends. Situation permitted, it would be better to go for further study. Nevertheless, the higher one reaches, the more he will gain.

The graduate diploma will certainly make you more competitive in your future career. But directly working after graduation will give you a deeper and sometimes more suffering understanding of your career, which may change your attitude towards work and life and also upgrade your professional qualities, thus it completely change your career plans.
All in all, if you do love your major, please pursue further study; if you do not love your major so much and are not sure about your future career, you can work first and give yourself a chance to find what you really love and enjoy. 

Best wishes.

The choice is grasped in your hand. However, for me, l will choose to have a higher diploma just like applying for graduate. One should take adventure for future. Though we don't know what will happen in the future. We can have a try! And also, finding a job may not be a bad choice. One  also can find a new world during he is working. All in all, it depends on your own choices and your plan. 
Best wishes!

Well, I am facing this problem now which options I should choose whether go to get a master degree or go to find a job after my graduate in the university? You know what there is a so diligent girl wants to go through this so crazy process of taking the master examination in our room. Actually I admire her so much in my heart , because she is brave in it. But I am not like that, I really don't like the way to study everyday that you have to well prepare  for this exam in the tight time. I more enjoy studying with a regular time everyday step by step. Therefore, I decided that I am willing to find a job firstly even if I don't know what can I do in the future, but I am trying to search and experience in this so colorful world. Hope you guys like me can follow your heart, and I believe that we will be whatever we want one day. Just do it.

    I get a idea that you haven't expericed a job or you know almost nothing about work and career as soon as i get your question.So analyze from this basic point,you'd better commence your career after you have realized what you would do and you can do.So enjoy your graduate master journey.But you should be active to accumulate relative experience regarding to your future work market.
     These words are from a usual thought.But most of things in the world are variable,the theory is based on you have answered these questions below:
1) You will engage a job constructed on your major?
2)The descision is made down? invariable?
3)You have enough space (time,money,opportunity) to get further learning?
4)You agree that further learning is one the same as your career?
