Accountants with with numbers to keep very accurate track of all of the resources of a business.  That will include not only the money, but also the materials like what is being sold or bought, the people who work for the business and their salaries and benefits.\n\nThat position requires extreme attention to detail.  The pay will depend on where (what city) the position is located, how big the business is that has to be accounted for, how many people work under you,  and what qualifications you bring to the position.  It couple pay as low as $25-30K a year up to six figures for a major corporation

You'll not know that until it happens. I'm told some never find anything they like, but I was lucky and found something I loved. I used to enjoy getting up in the morning and going to work. The money was good after I learned more about it and I stayed doing that job (42 years) until I retired 2 months ago. I still miss it. You'll know when you have it if your lucky. Trying to plan what your career will be would be very difficult I would think. If you've never done the job before, how do you know if it's what you want? The one thing I knew for a fact was I didn't want to work in a factory or even in the same building forever.

Right now I'd say don't do it. It sounds like you're confused and uncertain. Don't do something you might regret later. Think on this for a time and ask yourself what you believe is right.

The first thing you need to decide is what interests you and what you want to do.  Then, don't look for a job.  Look for a career.  Employers are going to be reluctant to hire anyone who does not have a career focus and will not work to their fullest..

Some college's have career counseling... it might be a good option for you...

take some time to think about how happy you really are with your job and where your career is taking you. if you feel like you want to try something else, go for it. you can always come back to a similar job in that field but you will never know if youre missing out on something you would love if you dont try!

You are old enough to decide your career path.  Your job needs to be what you want because you may be doing it most of your life and doing something you don't enjoy will make you miserable.  Be true to yourself..it is your life and your career.

Both are good, it just depends on the desire of the unknown.  If you truly want it, nothing anyone says will deprive you of trying to achieve your goal.  On the other hand, is the grass really greener on the other side?  I have heard it is not.  So in this case, keeping what you have might be the better option.

The answer lies in YOU (within you). You still did not figure out who you are. Find out what drives you or motivates you. discover your passion, analyse your strengths and weaknesses, set your goal and decide what you want to be in future.\nIf you are armed with this information, you will be choosing the right job for yourself which you will keep forever and will strive to excell in that position, ofcourse you will grow in your career too.

This is a bit of an awkward one. Therefore you need to think about it in advance. It is best not to say "I'm not sure", even if true! \nThis may be the case, but at least add about areas that you feel you might like to go into, this shows more thought, though of course you don't need to have some detailed five year plan. \nIf you really have no idea, then at least put it in a positive light "I believe in being flexible as to the future of my career. Whilst I have some idea about the general way in which I would like to advance, I am careful not to plan in too much detail. \nAs I get more experienced and grow in a role, I tend to find that new avenues are opened to me that I was previously not aware of. \nAs a result, what I see as the future of my career often changes as my role developed. I think I would like to stay in this general sphere and do something related to technology, but as for a specific role, or a dream job, then I feel it is a little artificial to give a definitive answer". \nTherefore in terms of the general answer, just re-emphasise how important being a model professional and team player are to you, that you would like to be known for your integrity and team playing and things like that.

i think maybe you should try to work it out, out way your options see whats best for you and go for it.   remember you make the job the job dosen't make you!!!!!!

How many people do you know that even have that option? If I were you I would definitely persue my masters. If you can handle having a job at the same time then go for it. But if you can't then quit..I dont think you would be burning bridges if you explain the scenario.

You should talk to people in different fields to get their take on what its like.  Most people will give an honest answer.  \n\nIf thats not possible, try to contact a career center in the medical school or medical facility..

First of all, congratulations on your thoughtful and smart thinking. Some 18yo haven't planned what they wanted to do with their lives and thus ended up doings thing in a hurry. This will lead them to an unhappy career and a big mess.\nFirst of all, you have to make a compromise. You have to choose something that will partially satisfy yourself, your family, your society, and most of all, all of these without prejudice and/or egoism.\nIf you do something that will ONLY satisfy your own dreams and pleasures, then you'll be labeled as selfish and self-centered. You will have to live your whole career with the fear of being rejected and refused a part into society. If you cannot choose a singing career no matter what, choose something very close, like song writing.\nIf you do something that will only satisfy your community (aka family, friends, society...) then you'll suffer even more and you'll feel you're being enslaved for other people's own peace of mind.\nTry to always judge your situation based on compromise. Remember this word, "C-o-m-p-r-o-m-i-s-e". We are not alone in this world... We should be considerate and realize that by helping others, we are also helping ourselves.\nRegards,

I think it is acceptable to ask if the right time presents itself. So set the conversation to where you can mention it, nonchalantly. Regardless though it is important for you to figure out is this a job you really want, are you tired of your old job? If so go for it anyways regardless of the salary. Your family will support you.

I understand that you're concerned about getting a job, but nothing will be worse for you than working a job you're unsatisfied with.  I say go with your gut and pursue criminolgy.  You're more interested in it, crime's not going anywhere (so there will always be SOMETHING), and that field seems to serve a more benevolent purpose.\n\nIf you aren't really satisfied with the results of the test you took, then I'd also suggest you ignore it, and sit down to think about what you love doing in life and how you can turn that into a career.  It doesn't sound like good advice at first, but don't play it safe and end up with a dull career that leaves you unfulfilled-- do what you love, whatever the potential risks.
