Given below are some important tips or guidelines that you should follow to choose the right career and be happy for the rest of your life.

KNOW YOUR STRENGTHS

Every one of us has strengths and weaknesses. The point is to find out what you are really good at. Are you good with numbers, perhaps a career in Bookkeeping or as an Accounting Technician in Kerry is something that you are suited to. Do you like dealing with the public, maybe a career starting out in Customer Service or working as a Receptionist is a good starting point? Do you love organising and planning, you could make an exceptional Office Manager or even Project Manager in Kerry? Alternatively your passion could be problem solving and your career path leans more towards technical roles such as working as a Software Developer or a Coder in Kerry. 


There must be something that you feel passionate about and are good at doing. You need to find out what those skills and strengths are so create a list of skills that you have. Then pick the strongest skills from that list. Consult your friends or family for an outer perspective. This will lead you naturally towards a number of professions and open your mind to thinking of further possibilities. Once you have this mindset it really will start becoming clearer and you can narrow the field down.


SEEK ADVICE FROM OTHERS

No matter where you live, you’ll always have people who are already employed, expert in a particular field or have more professional experience. It would be prudent to get in touch with these people and talk about your aspirations and gain some inside knowledge from them about their industry and experiences within. Gather information about different occupations and industries. 

START TRAINING

When you decide which career you think you are best suited to, it may then be time to start training.  Our in-centre Career Advisors would love to meet you for a chat to see what career in Kerry would suit you best and if a training course is needed to get you there.  They will also go through your current skills, your interests and job opportunities so they can advise on the best fit. It is so important for you to take some time to see what areas you are interested in and sometimes sounding them out with a professional is exactly what you need.
