Change careers as soon as possible, the later you are, the less courage you have, and the higher the sunk cost. When you're young, you can try different jobs so you know what you're better suited for.
Today, I would like to introduce to you an emerging industry - ESG. Last year, there was also the news of "an annual salary of one million for ESG positions", which really attracted a wave of eyeballs. In the job market, ESG jobs in the finance and consulting industries are indeed hot, and a large number of strategic positions in the direction of sustainability and ESG have also been added in traditional industries.
ESG, the full name of environmental, social and governance, can be understood from the literal meaning of English, refers to the evaluation of the sustainability of enterprise management from the three dimensions of environmental, social and corporate governance, that is, to evaluate the value of enterprises with social responsibility.
ESG development has been on the fast track in the past two years, and the vigorous development of the ESG market has stimulated a large demand for ESG talents. It can be said that it is one of the industries with a considerable salary, and it is particularly important that this position has no sales nature and is very friendly to social fear.
So what are the roles in ESG?
For example, Tencent has established the Sustainable Social Value Business Unit (SSV), and the Tencent Financial Research Institute and the China Society for Finance and Banking have established an ESG research group and an ESG research group.
Consulting firms. The consultation will set up ESG-related groups, such as the Big Four and MBB, which are between audit and consulting. There are also specialized research institutes, such as SynTao.
Market research company.
Market research companies will publish ESG-related reports, and will set up related groups, such as Nielsen.
Financial companies: For example, CICC Research will write a series of special reports on ESG investment; The bank has a green bond issuance department; Index companies, rating companies, and data service providers will do ESG data and company ESG ratings.
NGO, Research Institute:

How to get into ESG?
Personally, I think I can take a look at the relevant books first, and recommend the books "Research on ESG Disclosure Standard System", "Comparative Research on ESG Evaluation and Rating at Home and Abroad", and "ESG Theory and Practice".
After having a general understanding of ESG, it will be much easier to prepare for the CPBA ESG certificate with high industry recognition in the Exploration Diving ESG Academy! If you want to change careers, don't hesitate, start preparing now!
