What do you think I should do for a career?

Nobody can tell you or trace your career path but what wiser people can do is give you a compass so that you know WHEN you stray from your heart's desire or the world's need.\n\nThe framework or compass that I give people in my career management workshops is one that focuses their attention on basically four key dimensions of a good, fulfilling and rewarding career:\n\nTALENT\nWORLD'S NEED\nPASSION\nMEANING\n\nThese refer, respectively, to your head, your body (you have to make a living and get paid to feed and clothe your body), your heart and your soul.\n\nThe first thing to do is to determine what you are good at: that is, find your talent. Sometimes it takes a while to discover your unique talent. Just pay attention to what people say about you, especially the compliments they make.\n\nNext you have to develop your talent in a way that serves a real need in the world. \n\nThink about the theatrical talents of Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul II. They both used their acting talent by playing an important role in the world, at the time they were needed as leaders.\n\nOver time you will also realize that you want to do something that is meaningful to you at the personal level. You want to do something that contributes to a better world, something that is aligned with your values. This is about wanting to make a difference. We all want to make a difference.\n\nAnd of course throughout your career and in fact throughout every single day,  you want to do something that makes you feel alive (and kicking!).\n\nWhen older people give you advice, you can easily place their advice along one of these four key axes. Therefore, nobody's advice will be complete.\n\nSome will tell you to go "where the money is." Others will tell you to follow your heart. Yet other people will suggest you do something that makes a difference.\n\nBut in the end, it is up to you to consider each piece of advice given the global picture of a good career, which includes all four elements (in varying degrees, of course).\n\nGood luck!

First of all no one can specifically tell you how to start a new career.\n\nYou must do your homework. Ask yourself these questions:\n\nWhat do I want to do?\nWhat skills do I have?\nWhere do I want to work?\n\nThen you will be able to have a better idea of how to start your new career.\n\nIf you can network with people who might be in the field or industry you are interested in.\n\nCheck out this website from Monster. It is about career advice topics you can use to start your research.\n\nGod Bless and best of luck with finding your new career!

That depends what career options you want to consider? Are you a people person? Then think about teaching, nursing, banking, working with the public.  If you are more comfortable working by yourself consider a career in a job that allows you to have more freedom. Sales, Marketing, etc. For all careers you will do well with a good resume, experience, positive attitude and a clean neat appearance.

Go to college, get good grades.  Then get an internship and prove your worthiness.  If the company who you interned for doesn't need to keep you, you will have valuable working experience for future resumes.  Science is a great field of study, best of luck to you.

well i agree with some of the answers - decide what motivates you. i am not talking about what you would like to do but think about what puts a smile on ur face or what would be your  dream job... then draw out a plan how u can go about doing it. \n\ni will give you my example. i struggled through university in a degree i didnt like for a profession that everyone respects but i couldnt give a toss about. so anyhow - i decided what really motivated me was money but a whole lot of corporateness - u know doing deals and stuff. so i looked at what jobs would fit that... and then decided to try the one that i thought was most exciting.\n\nu know what would 'motivate' you. go out there and find the job/career/industry that would give you those things.

I would say the first thing to do is identify what you consider ideal and perhaps write it down. With those qualities in mind you can begin to think seriously about who you would want to work for, where you would want to work and what kind of work you would want to do. \n\nAs you are thinking about that, take a look at your resume / cv. Does your knowledge, skills, experiences and education align you with your perfect job or do you need additional skills and training to help make you more marketable. If there are gaps, now is the time to address them.\n\nWith that accomplished, you can set out with your list of qualities and your resume to find your perfect job. I suggest the best approach to this facet of your job search is to use a mixed approach. You can put your resume on the boards, but my experience has proven that it isn't the most effecient or effective way to find a job. Additionally, scour the job boards (Monster.com, Hotjobs. com, Careerbuilder.com and any niche sites that you may know of or be a member of) and identify jobs that you would want to apply for. Make sure that you are not kidding yourself or overestimating your abilities.\n\nWhile all of this is going on get the word out, talk to everyone you know and let them know that you are on the market and what kind of work you are looking for. Networking is one of the most effective ways to find a job.\n\nThis isn't an exhaustive step-by-step guide, but it should help you get started. All of this advice comes from a number of years of experience as a recruiter for large corporations.

be honest, and be specific about what your skills are, where you learned them, and how you would like to use those skills to contribute to the growth of the company you are applying to. also tell how you would get satisfaction from using those skills, and what new skills you would like to learn from this job.

either would work, just make sure your resume is geared towards the kind of work you want.

we can build our career by achieving the higher positions we aim at. Its not a one day act. It goes on in your life until you have a career goal and you are striving to reach that.

Flip Burgers. \n\nNo, actually the best thing to keep in mind when you conducting a job search is what you WANT to do.  The answer to that question will inevitably have more to do with your happiness and success than what you are QUALIFIED to do.  Most employers are more interested in what you've DONE and what you WANT TO DO than WHAT YOU'VE STUDIED anyway.  \n\nThink about what you like doing, where you'd like to be five/ten years from now, and what choices you'd like to have.  Don't let your degre determine what you can do.  People change jobs every 3-5 years and careers every 7-10, on average.  That you have a degree is much more important than what it's in specifically.  \n\nThe best advice I can give you is that whatever you choose, do something that will give you more options in the future (as opposed to fewer).  You never know how the circumstances in your life will affect your interests down the road.

First Step: Know which Field you want to get into (You probably have this step down). If not then go to a career assessment center/workshop and find out what careers are good for you and your lifestyle.\n\nSecond Step: Have a strong and yet truthful resume. There are plenty of self-help books available on this topic. Depending on work experience should not be more than 2 pages long maximum (1 page is usually preferred). Make sure your resume is tailored to fit the job you are applying for. Have a cover letter to go with it.\n\nStep 3: Presentation is very important whether it be your resume or your personality (especially at interview time). \n\nStep 4: To really get that job.....the following keywords are very important..'Networking' with the right people. Doing 'research' on potential companies and basically being in the know of what will be expected of you.\n\nStep 5: Apply for jobs online through company websites and also through job websites like monster.com etc, in person at job-fairs, word-of-mouth among friends and relatives, university career centers, local and national classifieds in newspapers, and last but certainly not the least through Recruiters/Headhunters.\n\nIf I have to sum it up in a sentence. You want to be very convincing to your future employer that YOU are the person they have been looking for. I hope this information helps. Wish you the best.
