ARE YOU IN THE RIGHT CAREER?

To help determine whether you are in the right career, ask yourself some of the following questions:

·         Do you enjoy going to work most days?

·         Do you enjoy what you do on the job?

·         Are you motivated to seek advancement in your career?

·         Are you willing to put in the extra effort to succeed in your career?

·         Are you in a stable or growing profession?

·         Do the requirements of your career match your lifestyle?

·         Are you satisfied with the time commitment your career requires?

·         Where do you see your career taking you in the next three to five years?

If you answered “Yes” to many of these questions, you are probably in the right career.

For you, career planning will entail seeking ways to learn and grow in your career. You must determine what skills and characteristics to develop, and what additional experience you need to continue your professional development.

If you answered “No” to more than a few of these questions, it may be time to consider a new career.
