I have to do a Career Search interview, but have noo clue on what to ask the person. The person is an accountant. Can someone plzz help me to come up with questions that i can ask that person.
How would you describe the ideal work environment for you? (or what sort of work environment would you thrive in)
I am looking for a new career. Besides the big sites like careerbuilder, monster, hotjobs, etc.. Where is the best place to go to search
You didn’t say how old you are but I’ll assume you are over 18.
A new career is something that should be decided with care. You want to ask yourself what kind of lifestyle you’d like and be sure to pick a career that will easily support it.
The 3 crucial issues to bear in mind are:
1. The Satisfaction a career will offer you. This will be related to you abilities, likes and dislikes.
2. The Income. Your career should at least permit you to live relatively comfortably, if not luxuriously from the income it has to offer.
3. The Time you’ll have to yourself and for your loved ones whilst pursuing the career. There is no point at all in finding that you have to spend all your time working your career and little for yourself and your loved ones.
You have to find a career that balances all 3 issues well enough for you. There’s no better career, of course, than the one that can satisfy all 3. Also, you will find that the issue of satisfaction in your career does not really count that much IF it offers you enough income and time, because you can use the ample income and time it gives you to go do whatever it is you are really interested in.
When you tie these 3 issues with what is happening to traditional jobs today, you will be well advised to find something you can do on your own and most likely from home.
This is where the Internet comes in. It is easily your best option if you are to fulfil all foregoing prerequisites.
In spite of the many scams that you must beware of, and which many people allow to turn them off thereby missing out big time, great opportunities also exist and you only have to take a bit of time to look closely enough. One of these is http://ScoreAtWill.com/Page1 which you may just want to consider.
All told, you must let whatever you decide on be something you are comfortable with and from which you will find joy and peace of mind.
All the best.
