Choosing a Career

December 14th, 2009No Comments

Job or Career?

Are you looking for a stop-gap job to pay off any bills you have or do you have a master plan for a career? Would a new environment help you adapt for your career and have you done all you can in the current job you are in? Maybe you want a new challenge and have more responsibility – a job and a career are two very different things. You do not have to know which you want, but if you have a plan then it’s likely a career path is available to you.

What do you enjoy doing?

What is it that you actually enjoying doing and what can you bring to a company? It could be a good idea to develop your skills in a certain industry or if you wish, learn something new. If you enjoy something but don’t have the necessary skills then there are a number of options. Many courses are available part-time and you can often get courses through your company. It is a good idea to check out which qualifications and experience you need for any role you aim to work in.

Things to consider:

  • Working for a large company where you can move roles
  • Working for a small company where you get experience of all aspects of the business
  • Working for a well-known and reputable company
  • Having training opportunities
  • How far do you want to travel?
  • What kind of salary are you looking for?

Temporary or permanent work?

It’s important to decide if you’re looking for temporary or permanent work. If you have been returning to work from a long absence it may be a good idea to do temporary work first and build up to permanent later on.
