HOW TO FIND YOURSELF A NEW LINE

OF WORK
09/15/2021 by JSE — Leave a Comment
Spend some time brainstorming ideas of what you like to do and things
you know you’re good at. Oftentimes, these two things intersect and
provide you with a list of potential talents and interests. You should not
think about jobs at this point.

*List all things you enjoy doing, and list them even if you don’t think they
can help you make ends meet.

*Don’t just write down what you think you’re good at. Consider if people
have told you you’re pro몭cient at something and also add that to the list.

*On your list, also jot down the di몭erent skills and talents those activities
may require. For example, if you enjoy hunting for antiques, you need to
have good observation skills and some history knowledge.

*Add to your list all of the things you have done in the past in terms of
training, courses, and basic classes. Even something seemingly random
counts as well, so do add it!

Start Thinking About Potential Jobs

Find out what jobs are out there that require your di몭erent skills and
talents. The Internet is a good place to begin your research, and type in
search terms such as ‘career skills’ or ‘skills assessment‘.
Once you have a list of quite a few jobs available, it’s time to keep only the
top three or four on your list. Make sure that the jobs you choose to keep
are ones that you would genuinely 몭nd yourself willing to commit to.

Educate Yourself About Your Chosen Career Path

Use the Internet and your local public library to learn as much as you can
about your new career path. A local government employment o몭ce can
also help you 몭nd out if there are any job openings in your new 몭eld and
whether training programs are available to you. Find civil engineering jobs
in India.

The next step is to do a reverse interview and interview successful

candidates in your chosen industry. What is it that they like about the
work? What skills are necessary for success?

**If there is a particular union for your chosen career, ask the o몭ce for
information.

It’s okay if you end up changing your mind at this point. Just start at the
beginning and make another list of jobs you may like even more. You
need assurance from yourself and others that you’re making the right
leap of faith.

Don’t Quit Your Day Job!

Strangely enough, a company is more likely to hire you if you already have
a place of employment. Consider starting out slow with a low-level job in
your new industry and work your way up.

Keep On Learning
It’s important to further your education, and you can do so by checking
out local colleges or vocational schools in your area. Ask about what kinds
of training and placement programs they o몭er to new recruits. It is also
important to inquire about classes you can take while still retaining your
old job. Oftentimes, it is possible to participate in classes at night or
during the weekend.

Training or classes may not be available in your locality, but that doesn’t
mean giving up. Ask a human resources department at a company hiring
in your chosen industry whether they o몭er on-the-job training. Though
this is not considered a job interview, you should still dress and behave as
if it were one. This also entails asking questions and discussing your work
experience and resume.

Make the time to commit yourself and join a professional organization or

union relating to your industry. A simple Internet search can help you
locate local groups. 

Once you polish your skills and have built your resume, you can start
searching for the perfect job!
