Career Change Course

Career Change

Hate your job?

Make a list of all the things you hate about your job. And then make a list of all the things you like about it, or liked about it when you first started. Think about why you chose this job and the hopes you had when it was new.

Go back over the list and see what you would like to change (either in this job or in a new one).

Were there things which were promised but which didn't materialise?

Would you like more training?

More responsibility?

Perhaps you'd like to set up a new project or initiate some measures which will make things run more efficiently.

Is there anything you can do about this? Some changes you can just get on with, if they fall within the scope of your existing job description. Others you may need to discuss with your boss.

Improving things in your present situation will have several benefits:

  • you'll feel better
  • you'll make your job more interesting
  • you'll gain experience which will help you get a new job.
