Choosing A Career — Part I
Filed under: Tips

career.jpgThousands of career choices are out there. Sometimes we are just too choosy with our career, leaving us empty handed. But how did you know that you have chosen the career that will suit your personality, values, interests, or  skills? Here are some information that will help you understand  each step of career planning which involves and give you guidance and resources to continue with your exploration and decision-making.

 1. Begin with your values. Careers are built upon the notion of a high correspondence between one’s personal values and the work they will be doing. Begin your career search by sorting out your values and writing them down as clearly as you can. Your values are the emotional anchor of all that you do. 2. Identify your skills and talents. You may be skilled at something and still not find it interesting. Chances are, however, if you are naturally talented at something, there will be a correspondence between that particular talent and your values. 3. In your first job, opt for experience first, money second. A good way of sizing up several opportunities is to ask yourself: “Which position will offer me the best chance of becoming excellent at what I do?” And that may not be the one that pays the highest initial salary.
