CHOOSING A CAREER: THINK IT OVER!

A career used to be understood as a single occupation that people did to earn a living. However, in the changing world of work, nowadays people have to keep learning and be responsible for building their future. Therefore, a career is now considered more than a job. Rather, it is an ongoing process of learning and development of skills and experience. Choosing a career path is hard – you have to consider many things. Firstly, you should consider what you like, what is most important to you, what you are good at and who is there to help you. For example, you may care mostly about earning as much money as possible or you may want to experience job satisfaction, or make a difference to society. Then, you should take into account education and learning styles. You may want to follow an academic route of high school, then college or university. Alternatively, you may opt for vocational training where you learn skills which can be applied directly to a job. Thirdly, you should do your own research to explore possible career paths. For instance, career paths in education include teaching, curriculum development, research or administration. Finally, speak to people. Your parents, your teachers, and even your peers can give you good advice.
