selecting your new job

I had been thinking and asking the question... "how does a new college graduate select her or his job?".

It seem to be a simple and straight forward question. However, when I asked some of the colleagues at work, majority said that the job selection was left to the game of chance. It was either the first one available, or they stumbled upon the advert in the paper or even they followed their friends.

I came across this video in the tube. I thought it is good. At least the proper process was followed when they do the self assessment to check our strength and preferences. They even provide the solution and the actions to be taken, in term of what additional skills and knowledge if you happen to choose a job beyond your present skill level.

The video shows Northwest Michigan Career Planning and Career Assessment Workshop.
