Get a Better Job

Are you where you want to be in your professional life? Is it time for a new job, or should you invest your energy in learning fresh skills at your current job?

The Career Exploration tool provides step-by-step details to help you evaluate your own career path. Start by identifying your likes and dislikes, skills, and values. Also, think about your ideal job by asking yourself these questions:

* What are you doing when time seems to fly by?
* What do you look forward to doing?
* Who do you know, real or fictional, who has your dream job?

Do you think you're ready for a career change, or at least a career shift?

* Visit the Skills Profiler to help identify other occupations that require skills similar to your current job.
* Research other occupations and industries.
* Consider updating your skills.
* Visit the Employability Checkup for a snapshot of your ability to find employment within a specific occupation at a particular wage and location.
* In the military or recently separated from service? Visit the Military to Civilian Occupation Translator to match military skills and experience to civilian careers.
