Telecommunications is a dynamic sector that offers exciting career opportunities, yet often overlooked by young individuals. Despite over 60% of telecom engineers being over 50, the youth seem to overlook it. It is crucial to emphasize the need for fresh talent to join this fast-growing, top-paying industry that heavily influences our daily lives. Even for those not a tech gurus, there are a multitude of roles available in the field, from design engineer to satellite engineer. Engaging in telecommunications has the potential to offer opportunities for global travel, like Emma Philpott, who had no initial telecom intent yet found herself traveling from Abu Dhabi to Antarctica.
