Dear all,
I am a fresh graduate and have just received two offers from two different Recruitment Firms. "A" is a medium-sized firm with branches in Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Australia, including partner companies in Hong Kong and Japan. "B" is a small-sized firm with branches in Singapore and Malaysia only. "A" offers a lower Basic Pay, but higher Commission. However, if I do not reach my quota, they would cut 20% of my Basic. "B" offers $200 higher pay but lower Commission and does not cut my Basic even if I don't reach my quota. Both companies, A and B, have been established for 10 years. Company "A" has grown into different branches around Asia, and Company "B" has not achieved that much.
Question: Which firm do you think I should rest my career on? Which offer should I take up? Taking all the aspects of both companies into consideration. Please advise... I'm so confused.
Thank you so much!

Hi,
If you truly believe you are competent enough to meet the targets of Company A, then you should pursue it. By giving your best there, the chances of a bright future for yourself are higher.
I believe you should maintain a positive outlook and tackle challenging tasks rather than opting for comfort at the beginning of your journey. This approach will enhance your self-confidence, and you possess qualities that can contribute positively, but remember to always give your best.
All the best,
Ayesha.
