FOR THE PERSON MAKING CAREER CHANGES

If you had the opportunity to do it all over again, would you still be in the same job?  Would you make the same decisions?  Or, would you take more control over your career direction?  Career planning can help you realize your true potential and assist you in dealing positively with career changes.

Trends in our occupational employment have changed significantly over the years.  When a person was hired for a job, it was thought to be until retirement.  That is no longer the case.  According to the Occupational Outlook Quarterly, changes that affect our economy and the demand for goods and services will directly affect the growth and decline of jobs.
