[FONT=Comic Sans MS,Sans-Serif]of a website where I can explore a career change? If I do a search, I mostly get results that are either sales pitches or colleges and money making schemes. [/FONT]
[FONT=Comic Sans MS,Sans-Serif]I am looking for something that will help me figure out what careers would be more suited to the person I am and what my interests are rather than what I've already done and am good at. [/FONT]
[FONT=Comic Sans MS,Sans-Serif]I've been at this job for a while - 15 years - and while it's been a means to an end (helped me support and raise my daughers with a very flexible schedule and very good money and benefits), I am 46 years old, my kids are grown and *almost* independent and I am BORED. I feel under appreciated at work, and many of my duties have been spread to others, so there is little challenge. I do my job well, but I'm slipping because it's just not holding my attention anymore. Much as I like having this job and knowing what I do, etc., I hate it at the same time. [/FONT]
[FONT=Comic Sans MS,Sans-Serif]I am seriously considering going back to school, but I don't know what I should go back for. So, I want to find out what jobs are most needed out there and how I fit into that equation...how to utilize the skills I have and how to add those I will need, what is required, what the pay rates are for this area, etc. I have some college under my belt, mostly with focus in business and social work, probably a few credits shy of a general associates, but I'm not there. I'd love to use the educational credits I have, of course, but I really do not want to go back to school for business. Ugh. been there done that. [/FONT]
[FONT=Comic Sans MS,Sans-Serif]So, any suggestions? [/FONT]
