Search Results for ‘career advice’

I've recently found out that my 'career' in IT at a large company has effectively been frozen because of my perceived anti-establishment attitude. It seems likely that it is either too late, or would take too long, to rehab my image, even if I wanted to. Given that, where can I take my...

I have no idea what I want to do with my life. I keep being told about the basic jobs like doctor, lawyer, and psychologist (not that any of these are bad, they’re just vague). Could you post a specific career/field that you know of that’s not one of the obvious ones and a brief description? I...

So, I am at a crossroad and have to decide a career. There are two options, i) Accountancy & Business, and ii) Psychology. Accountancy takes just 3 years, Psychology takes 7 years. Now, as to why I am asking this, its so because my parents usually expect me to start earning in 3-4 years and...

For most of my life, I've been a strong ENFP, but now that I've grown and changed, my introverted thinking has come closer and more frequently to the surface. I'm about to go to college soon and I need to make some concrete decisions about my major. I wanted to be an actress when I was a kid...

If you work as a financial advisor, please answer me: Is the job intellectually stimulating? How much socializing do you have to do? Do you think society benefits from it? How much attention to detail you have to have? How good in math do you need to be? Does it generally fits an INTP or...

I'd try not to write my entire biography here... So I live in one of the most stressful cities in Asia. I don't like it here since I was young because I couldn't relate to most of the people here. A lot of them are materialistic and just follow whatever trend it is at the moment. They also are...

Hello, I'm a 17 yo girl. I have taken a lot of tests (and it says I'm an INFJ), but I still confused which personality I am. I'm super sensitive, like when I hear this story or just one song that touches my heart, I would cry. More over with some story. I'm a perfectionist, value traditions, I...
