confused getting job

Dear Donkey's Ear

I am a university student who is ready to get a job.
I have great grades in my major field of study. I am also good in English.
I will graduate university in this year.

But I am worried about getting a job. Recently the world economy is worse and
Korea's economy is worse too. So there are few opportunities to get a job.
I don't have confidence that I will be success to get a job.

There are not enough information to get a job.
I don't know what I should study or achieve more.
May I ask for you some advice?

Dear Select in Tokyo,

Thank you for making corrections to your post! Great work! Please note these last few changes: 

• A company which produces cars/computers is the correct form. "A company" is singular.
• The proper sentence order is: I have worked for ABC Company, which produces cars, for 30 years
  
• ears should be capitalized, written Ears in this case, because it is a title
• advice should be spelled advise

Military service broke couple

Dear Donkey's Ear

My girlfriend and I have been together 1 year.
We keep good relation each other.

One day, one letter was sent to me. The notice of military service!
I thought about my girlfriend because I hear that many couples had broken up in bad way.
someone said, "It is the best thing that I part with a girlfriend."
someone said, "No, no, no. If she is a good girl, she must wait for you.
I don't know what should I do.

 I think that it is better way to part with a girlfriend. Because if we keep our relationship
both of us are distressed. We will be worse than yesterday.

 So is it right thing that I part with my girlfriend?

 

Dear Brokenhearted in Boston,

Thank you for making corrections to your post! Great work! Please note these last few changes: 

• Relation should be changed to relationship
• "we keep good relation each other" should be "we have a good relationship"
• "a" should be replaced with "my"
• So is parting with my girlfriend the right thing?

Big gap makes broken hearts.

Dear Donkey's ears,

My girl friend and I have been together for one year. We spent a happy time together, and she introduced me to her parents.

But her parents were surprised and refused to accept me. Because I am 50 years old and she is 20 years old. I know it's difficult for her parents. But we already promised to marry each other. I don't think there is a relationship between love and age.

Now, I'll try asking her parents again to get married. Please tell me what I should say.
