How to choose the right career The old saying find a job you love and never work a day in your life puts a great deal of pressure on people who are trying to choose the right career. Can you really find one that is so enjoyable it wont even feel like work? Well, that might be a bit of an exaggeration. No matter how much effort you put into picking an occupation, there are days when it will feel like work. However, there will be others when you will think, I would do this even if I werent getting paid. The trick is to choose a career that has many more great days than ones that arent so great. With thousands of occupations to pick from, to increase the odds of career satisfaction, find one that is a good fit for your interests, aptitudes, work-related values, and personality type. It is also essential that you enjoy the majority of the jobs duties, the earnings are acceptable, and the job outlook (that is the potential future of the profession) is good. Heres how to go about making a good match. Your first order of business is to learn as much as possible about yourself. If you think you know all there is to know, the results of a self-assessment will be eye-opening. A career development professional, for example, a career counselor or career development facilitator, can help you with this step, but dont be discouraged if you cant afford to hireone. Many public libraries offer free career planning services. If your local library doesnt, the librarian can recommend local agencies that offer career counseling. Instead of meeting with a counselor, there are also free or low-cost career assessments available online. If you attended college, consider contacting that institutions career services office. As analumnus, you may be able to access them. In addition, academic programs that train career counselors often have students work with clients at little-to-no cost to gain experience. The results from your self-assessment will include a list of occupations that are a good fit for you based on all the factors it examined, but the quest to find the right career doesnt end here. While some of the occupations may be nearly perfect for you, others may be all wrong. Even though they are a good match for your personality type, interests, values, and aptitude, they may be unsuitable in other ways. For example, the job duties may not appeal to you, the outlook may be poor, or the required education or training could be more than you are willing to complete. Make an informed decision by exploring each of the careers on your list. Read descriptions of the occupations and ignore your prejudices. Unless you have personal experience or have done prior research, theres still a lot to learn before you can decide whether a career would be right for you. After finding out what it would be like to work in an occupation, see what the educational requirements are. If they dont match your educational goals, cross them off your list. If youve always dreamed of going to college, dont pick an occupation for which you only need a high school diploma. Finally, you will do yourself a disservice if you dont consider the job outlook. Investing time in training for a career only to find out there are limited opportunities will waste your time, effort, and money. After narrowing down your list to just a few careers, it is time to dig a little deeper. Continue your research by conducting informational interviews with people who work in the occupations you are seriously considering. Getting their perspectives can help you make a more informed decision and study for the career that is ideal for you.
