Suggestions Needed!

stchandon2 · 10-18-2005, 06:05 AM

Hi, Iam currently unemployed and Iam finding it hard to know what the right thing for me to do is. I have been working for the last 3 or so years in my chosen profession (as a nurse but that is a another story) but Iam desperately seeking a career change. But, my problem is that Iam having so much trouble trying to decide what kind of job would be the right one for me, or what it is that I could really be good at. Has anyone else ever been in this situation? How did you finally figure it out?

I have no idea what to do next!

You can go to most State Employment offices and ask them about the testing they do to help people discover what they like to do and would be best at doing. A lot of private consulting firms will do the same thing but it costs more. The advantage to a private firm is that you usually get more individual attention.
