The FINANCIAL — Cosmetics stores, book shops and the restaurant business lead among the most preferred spheres named by women interviewed by The FINANCIAL. 50% of the women questioned prefer to have an active job and communicate with people while working.
“I would with pleasure work in the cosmetics business. As all women like to have as many cosmetic facilities as possible and use modern make up facilities, myself included, the cosmetics business in my view is the best place to work,” Ketevan Gambashidze, 26, told The FINANCIAL.
“I would like to have a book store; it has always been my childhood dream. It would be interesting for me to work in a book store as I love reading different books. I would with pleasure run a book shop, with a modern design and perhaps even a little café in it. People would definitely enjoy reading books in such a lovely atmosphere,” said Teona Tomaradze, 22.
“From my childhood I have always dreamt about having many cosmetics and perfumes, that’s why I would with pleasure run a cosmetics shop where I would definitely enjoy working. At the moment I am working in one of the leading Georgian banks, which I don’t want to name but if there would be a chance for me to start working in the cosmetics sphere I would not miss it,” saidTamuna Kacharava, 27.
Nanuka Rapava, 34, says that she runs a little café in the very centre of Tbilisi city, but as she told The FINANCIAL, she would be the happiest women ever if she could run a fashionable, modern designed restaurant.
“When I was young I always dreamed of having my own restaurant with two floors and a highly professional design. I would like to offer people many different types of cuisine. If I had a restaurant I would offer people different meals from Asian cuisine, like Thai and Chinese. I would invite famous cooks from Asian and European countries,” said Nanuka Rapava.
While interviewing women, it appeared that there are many different spheres where they would work, including auditing, child education, psychology and fashion.
“I am studying at the faculty of clothes design, so it’s easy to guess that I would with pleasure work in the sphere of fashion. It would be very attractive for me to work as a fashion designer and make some different clothes designs for women,” said Maka Chantladze, 20.
“I will probably work in the field of audit, it is interesting to analyze different companies in different industries, after which you will have the experience to be independent and rule your own business,” said Ketevan Kikvadze, 22.
“My favourite sphere and field of working will always be being a teacher at a private school. I love to work with children, communicate with them and teach them something valuable that will give them the ability to grow as highly educated and intelligent people,” said Makuna Babunashvili, 26.
According to the women inquired by The FINANCIAL, they would like to have a high salary. They say that nowadays they prefer a highly paid job to working in their favourite field but with a low salary.
“In my view it’s quite a bad tendency that people prefer to work at highly paid jobs than to work in their most preferred spheres. I myself will also always choose a higher paid job to one where I work with pleasure,” said Makuna Babunashvili.
“Unfortunately one’s salary today has become the most important thing when choosing a working place. I myself will never prefer a high salary to a working place where I enjoy being. It’s great when a person has a high salary and also works in an interesting sphere for him/her, but this happens quite rarely. I would never exchange my favourite working sphere for any amount of salary. I have no idea how people can work in a sphere they don’t like or even hate,” said Tamuna Chantladze, 24.
