任务型阅读 Understanding the process of making career choices and managing your career is a basic life skill that everyone should understand. Your career decisions have such a profound effect on all aspects of your life.It's important to have the knowledge and resources needed to make smart, informed decisions. Many people mistakenly believe that choosing a career is a onetime event that happens some time in early adulthood.However, career management is actually a lifelong process, and we continue to make consequential career choices over the years. Whether you are looking for a new job, aiming to take the next step at your current job, completely changing your career or planning your retirement options, you are making career decisions.Using good resources and the guidance of a career counselor can help you to make those decisions well. So many people jump right to creating a new resume when they want to take action in their career. However, career management and job search is about so much more than writing a good resume.If you take the time to learn about, think through and act on the four main areas of career management, you'll be rewarded throughout your career. Your interests, abilities, values and personal needs and realities should all be taken into account in any career decision making process.You spend countless hours at work, and it impacts your life in so many ways;it makes sense that you should be fully informed before making such profound decisions. Do you know how many different career choices are available to you?Both The Dictionary of Occupational Titles(American)and The National Occupational Classification(Canadian) list well over 20,000 different job titles.So unless you've actively explored a variety of career options, there's a very good chance that there are great possibilities available to you, and you don't even realize they exist. Match your understanding of yourself with your understanding of possible career options.Once you have developed a good understanding of yourself, you will be able to combine that selfknowledge with your career and labor market research to determine potential careers that are a great fit for you. When you've made a well informed decision, then you're ready to make it happen.Making use of good career guidance and resources will help you to acquire the education, skills and experience needed to get the job. Avoid the"ready, fire, aim"approach to making career choices and job searching.Time spent understanding your needs, researching your career options and developing outstanding job search skills, guided by great career resources, is a powerful investment in your future.
