How to Choose the Right Career



Choosing the right career can be difficult, but having a defined career direction will help you with getting a job. But with a little hard work, some planning, and some serious self-reflection, you can set yourself on a path towards a fruitful, fulfilling career that can provide for you and your family.  

Look through the list of tips and warnings and comment on them.

Tips
  • For example, if you like playing video games, consider becoming a video game designer, programmer, or QA specialist.
  • If you like drawing or art, consider becoming a graphic designer.
  • If you like sports, consider going into teaching and getting certified as a coach.
  • People rarely know right away what career they should be in and it takes most people several years to settle into the path they will follow. Don’t feel like you’re behind!
  • If you don’t like your career, change it! Sometimes it takes more work, especially if you’re older, but it’s possible for anyone.
  • It’s not the end of the world if you choose a career that isn’t something you dreamed of doing ever since you were little. If you have a job that doesn’t make you miserable but which securely provides for your and your family’s future, you will be surprised how happy you feel about your life and career.
Warnings
  • Be wary of any job which promises easy money. There is rarely any such thing.
  • Don’t get pulled into any financial pyramids. These can land you in debt or even prison.
  • Be wary of jobs offered overseas. Thoroughly research any company before traveling to take a job.
