CAREER PERSPECTIVEYou Should Embrace in 2016 

Page 3: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

A person’s career perspective is how he or she views their long-term career goals.

Page 4: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

The perspective includes concepts such as which type of job is most suitable for a person…

Page 5: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

…the path he or she should take in order to excel and how long they should expect to keep the job. 

Page 6: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

The following are some ideas that should be embraced when setting out on your career search in 2016.

Page 7: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

ACCEPT THAT EMPLOYMENT MAY CHANGE

Page 8: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

There used to be a time when people could select a career and expect to stay on that same job for the duration of their lives. 

Page 9: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

Economic factors and changes in lifestyle and company culture make that objective almost impossible nowadays. 

Page 10: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

The modern employee or career holder should expect to change occupations at least once during the course of his or her life. 

Page 11: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

Such may occur more than two times in a location where turnover is high and the overall age and maturity level of executives is low. 

Page 12: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

Workers should not be discouraged, however, because long-lasting careers are still out there to be found. 

Page 13: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

SEEK JOBS THAT MATCH YOUR PERSONALITY

Page 14: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

A person who seeks to spend a lifetime on a career will have to select jobs that match his or her personality.

Page 15: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

Mismatched choices will almost definitely reduce a person’s length of stay in a particular job. 

Page 16: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

Speaking to a career counselor and taking advantage of career assessments can help to pinpoint areas of interest which better suit your personality.

Page 17: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

BE REALISTIC ABOUT THE COMPETITION

Page 18: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

One way that modern-day job applicants mess up is by being unrealistic. More than 5 percent of people in the United States alone are out of work. 

Page 19: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

That means that many people are often competing for the same job positions. 

Page 20: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

In fact, some employers have changed their hiring process to allow a large number of applicants, sometimes as many as 100, to come in for group interviews. 

Page 21: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

It is important for modern-day job seekers to be realistic about the number of people competing for jobs these days and the effort that it takes to stand out and be selected over other applicants. 

Page 22: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

The days of walking into a place of employment and walking out with a job are almost gone now.

Page 23: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

REALIZE THAT CREDENTIALS AND EXPERIENCEDON’T ALWAYS EQUAL PROMOTIONS

Page 24: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

Another area that people need to adjust with their career perspective is the area of promotions. 

Page 25: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

Many people think their career path should include quick or easy promotions because of the degrees they carry or …

Page 26: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

…the experience that they have had on one job or another. That concept could not be farther from the truth.

Page 27: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

In fact, many employers base their job promotions on characteristics that have nothing to do with experience or credentials. 

Page 28: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

They review personality traits Success Ability to get along with co-workers 

and management staff

Employers take these factors quite seriously and use them to determine whether or not an employee has earned a promotion. 

Page 29: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

In 2016, a career-minded individual needs to have a completely revised game plan than their counterpart of five years ago. 

Page 30: Career perspective you should embrace in 2016

The modern perspective for a long-lasting career should be realistic but encouraging and simple but specific.
