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 proficient at something and also add that to the list.

*On your list, also jot down the different 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 different 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 find 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 office can also help you
find out if there are any job openings in your new field 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 office 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 offer 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 offer 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!
