I joined Prof Ariando’s group while pursuing my master’s degree. My main research area was magnetic property control using multiferroic materials. In the process of learning various aspects of physics, I became very interested in nanomaterials and technology and was looking for work in such related fields. 

But job opportunities have decreased a lot more compared to previous years so it was hard to find employment with more people competing for the same position. I decided to look for a place that will be more suitable for my own development. I am now employed as an optical engineer in a Suzhou-based startup company dedicated to the development and testing of optical and terahertz instruments.  I am grateful to be playing a useful role in this company and receiving a good income. I think a good company is a place where people can realise their talents fully and so add to the value of their life.
