PennyThere’s a great deal of fear and pessimism going on in relation to people and their jobs today.  I know many people who have either lost their jobs due to company lay-offs or perhaps just live in fear of losing them; as well as those people who desperately wish to leave their jobs but are too afraid to quit in such an uncertain job market.  This week I’m going to be talking about “The Top Four Strategies for Finding a New Career.”

#1 Strategy: Self-Assessment

The first step in the career planning process is doing a complete self-assessment.  In order to get a job that meets your personal goals and expectations, you really need to know yourself well and understand what motivates you and makes you tick.  Learning about your interests, values, and personality will help you make a better career decision and find a job that more closely matches your unique individual qualities. It has long been understood that working in a job that closely meets your individual interests, values, and personality will ultimately make you a much happier and more successful person.

At Career Choice we work directly with you on completing reliable and valid assessments that are used by many career professionals in the field.  It’s important to use these types of assessments to get a true picture of who you are and discover what you need to make your life fulfilling and rewarding. Although a large number of career quizzes, tests, and assessments have popped up online over the course of the past several years, most career professionals do not recommend or endorse the majority of these online offerings and believe that many of them can be harmful or detrimental to individuals who are truly looking to better understand themselves.

Career Choice offers these assessments as part of a regular career counseling session or they can be administered via the internet after speaking with a career counselor.  Once the assessment is completed, a career counselor will interpret the results and go over them with you.  Have you ever wondered what career options are available that would make you happy and successful?   Do you wonder what people with similar interests are doing in their jobs?  By completing several career assessments, you will have a much better understanding of yourself and how to best use that knowledge to make a positive difference in your job and your life.

Tomorrow we will talk about Strategy #2 – Exploring Career Options.
