How to pursue a new career

Posted on August 20, 2014 at 11:13 am

For many of us, a change in career is something that we may do once or twice in our lifetime. If you already have a secure job with a regular income, it can be hard giving this up to start on a new career path. Ideally you want to be able to do as much training and gain experience in the new industry before leaving a current job. If you have the opportunity, you could do a training course in your own time at home or attend college in the evenings.

People choose to take a change in their career for many reasons; sometimes it is for job satisfaction and other times due to personal circumstances changing. If you are serious about doing it, then try to plan ahead and see what types of jobs you would be able to apply for and if you can jump straight in or require extra training. If you can, try to save a little money to cover the period when you may be out of work or on a probationary job trial.
