Selecting a field tht encompasses as many of your talents and allows you the greatest freedom is not an easy task. Just take a look on some important points that make your job a little easier.
Begin by determining what you like :
A lot of people look to others to determine their career paths; teachers, parents, neighbours and peers. Think about people you respect and what they do for work. Take time to map out your wants and to match your skills with skills that are actively sought within certain fields of work. This will involve a fair bit of research work but it is well worth it.
Identify the skills you use when you are doing the thing(s) you enjoy:
Look at the things you are good at doing already. These will give you a very good indication of what you are likely to enjoy doing by way of a career. Once you have identified a potential field, you are then ready to match your skills.
Qualifications required for fields that interest you:
Library, internet and direct contact research will be refquired here. It is also helpful to ask your school, local community services, university, etc., for assistance in career choices and development. Your thorough research will help you out to determine quickly which areas you want to study in.
Sign up for an educational or training programme:
While studying, do not neglect to take advantage of networking opportunities and chances to work in your career field either as a volunteer or in short-term paid positions. These opportunities will give you the best possible feel for the work and the types of people in the field that you will be working with.
So, just select right career path to set your future.
