Supply and demand plays a key. Is your job position in excess? Maybe you can work in something else. Don't wait for them.
That's what most of us will be doing in the years to come, changing our jobs every two-three years or so. It's hard to predict beforehand which job positions will be in excess in 3 years and which ones will be in high demand. I mean, it's similar to sports betting: if a team will win most likely( read:
a job will be in high demand) then many people bet on it (read:
many people learn that job) and your reward becomes close to nothing. Some contemporary thinkers say that bioengineering is a very promising specialization. But then again, if everybody knows that, we can end up with excess of bioengineers pretty soon.
