NigelW Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Is someone willing to help me understand how to make wise career decisions?
shirgall Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 I'm glad that I asked first You asked a pretty darn vague question. Without context, any advice is pretty silly. Here's my advice: listen to every post in manager-tools.com, including the career tools podcasts and interviewing series.
QueechoFeecho Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 Figure out your goals, i.e. what you want out of life, then choose career actions that are likely to leave you meeting those goals, or at the very least, having a chance. For example if you want to have a $10M house and a bunch of cars and boats, you'll need to aim at something lucrative, like sport, music, acting, or business. Another example: If you want relative to safety, enough to each, and some savings, you can find any office job with benefits, make $40k-$80 a year, don't overspend, and you'll achieve it.
kerou Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 Tell us about yourself first. It's difficult to make any meaningful suggestion without first knowing who you are. What are you good at? What do you enjoy? What are your weaknesses and what are areas of improvement? These are all very important questions that needed to be answered before you can expect anyone to help you out.
