What Job is for Me?

In choosing a job there are a number of things a person can do that can help them to make the best decision. Firstly, get to know themselves – their strengths, values, interests and ambitions. Next, do research on possible jobs - making sure they know as much as they can about what specific jobs are really like.

In addition – get some advice from a professional as there might be other options or funding schemes open that could be overlooked. It is always helpful to have someone impartial as a sounding board to check if you're doing the right thing.
