DREAM JOB COME MY WAY…
How to find your dream job (Part 1)
Do you hate your job? Do you love your job but lost your enthusiasm about the company that you work for? Do you feel unfulfilled with your career? Are you tired of rubbing the magic lamp wishing for your dream job?
There are many reasons why we are unsatisfied about our jobs. If you look at the three questions at the beginning, the most important factor is not the job or the company or the career…it’s you. How do you feel about you?
Human Resource Professionals know that a typically employee change jobs, and sometimes companies after 3 years. Why is that?
In my experience with working with individuals looking for a new opportunity it boils down to satisfaction. Sure, there are always the ones who are looking for more money. Nothing wrong with that. We all have bills to pay and need money to support our interests, etc. There are those who are looking to lead other employees and there are some who truly want to help their clients, but feel they are being held back by their company’s “rules”. And there are many more reasons.
I don’t know about you, but I often hear people say they are looking for their dream job. Have you ever wondered how to find your dream job?
As the genie of your dream job, here is a starting point…
First, make a list of all the things that you like to do that makes you happy. Compare that list with what you are doing now. Does any of it align?
Second, think about yourself and who you are. Make a list of those descriptive words that describe you. Do you find yourself in your current job?
Third, take some time to think about your education, past jobs, hobbies, interests and what you are passionate about. Do any jobs come to mind that you can take everything you have learned, the things that you like to do and what you are passionate about?
As you think about who you are, what you enjoy doing and what makes you happy…think about what jobs come to mind. It could be a job working for someone else or it could be something entrepreneurial.
Educate yourself on those various jobs that came to mind and the companies who hire for those positions. If you are looking to get entrepreneurial, Goggle your area to see if there are people doing what it is that you want to do. See if you can schedule a time to interview them about what it is like to do what they do.
Start rubbing that magic lamp to discover what will make you happy and what your dream job is.
