"Helping others IN some fields" vs "helping others AT some fields"?

Question

Would you like to gain experience in helping others in some fields which you think you like?

vs

Would you like to gain experience in helping others at some fields which you think you like?

Or maybe something other will be better than "in" or "at"?

It doesn't matter whether field is singular or plural, figurative or literal, or qualified by a word like some. The only preposition that normally occurs before field is in. — FumbleFingers, Commented Jan 28, 2021 at 17:46
The construction at some field is likely to be used only in contexts such as: He was spotted exercising his dog at (or **on) some field on the far side of town. — Ronald Sole, Commented Jan 28, 2021 at 21:57

You don't use at here, because a field is something you work in, have experience in, and so on. See the examples here:
