[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 261722, member: 3907"] A couple of thoughts off the top of my head... Jo, have you ever done the Myers-Briggs test? If not, there are lots of "unofficial" versions of the test out there on the internet. A lot of them have career advice based on personality, skills and interests. That might get you started and point you in the direction of things you might like. One thing that might help you in narrowing the field: Take a sheet of poster paper and divide it in half. On one side, make a list of everything about any job you've ever had that you've really enjoyed doing. On the other side, make a list of the things you've disliked most about every job. This might help you to find a good direction to go in. For example, if you really like creating processes, organizing things, documenting procedures and instructions, then perhaps a Technical Writer or Instructional Designer might be right for you. This is just one example, but there are plenty out there. Also, if you do a Google search on "career finder" or "career builder" or other such terms, you might find some resources to point you in the right direction. Hope this helps. Trinity [/QUOTE]
