Deciding which career is right for you

by Catherine Twiss

How do you know what's right for you? That's the billion dollar question. Sure, you know you're stuck in a job that's not quite right, or maybe you fell into your career and wonder is there something else out there for you that will make you more fulfilled and happy.

Recently the Careers Coach at LinkMe spent some time with a member who was disillusioned with her current career, even though she had spent 6 years at university preparing for her profession and was only 3 years into her career. What was she to do - throw away her training and start all over again (daunting to say the least) or look for ways to increase her job and life satisfaction?

Deciding what to do in life isn't easy and sadly there's no magic formula that guarantees career satisfaction. Some search forever for career satisfaction, a lucky few find it and the rest of us are somewhere in the middle. Luckily there is a process that can really help steer you in the right direction.

Working through LinkMe's recently released Who Am I, free e-booklet read how Sam went about her journey for career self discovery. Learn about the highs and lows she experienced, the risks and rewards and the seemingly impossible odds she bet in an effort to find career fulfillment.

Don't worry this case study has a happy ending for Sam or should we say a happy beginning? Perhaps reading about Sam's experience will resonate with you and give you ideas as to how you should go about changing your life for the better!
