If you are looking for career ideas you may greatly benefit from a career assessment. A good career assessment will take into consideration your strengths, interests, and perhaps most importantly, your motivations. Once these are identified you will be able to narrow your career research significantly and make the whole process easier. Free access to a very insightful career test and the resulting personalized motivational appraisal of personal potential (MAPP) is provided courtesy of JobForge.com. Simply visit http://jobforge.com and click on the career assessment link on the index page or visit http://tinyurl.com/career-test . This career tool will allow you to: * Find your real motivations, interests, and talents for work * Identify your ideal careers * Discover your communication and leadership strengths Based on what you have already stated, I am going to step out on a limb here and predict that your own MAPP will most likely reflect your love of people. Once you have identified one or more careers of interest you may find consulting the Occupational Outlook Handbook published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics at http://www.bls.gov/OCO/ helpful. It will give you access to hundreds of different types of jobs—such as teacher, lawyer, and nurse—the Occupational Outlook Handbook tells you: * the training and education needed * earnings * expected job prospects * what workers do on the job * working conditions To better understand future hiring trends within a broad range of employment categories be sure to read the Occupational Outlook Handbook page titled "Tomorrow's Jobs". Look for it under Related Links or visit http://www.bls.gov/oco/oco2003.htm . In order to determine who is hiring in your chosen field you may also wish to consult industry specific publications. General financial publications can also be a source of insight into future employment opportunities. Finally, to discover who is actually hiring once you have the necessary skills, training, and experience you should find using a good job search site very helpful. Good luck finding your path!
