A job versus a career: Why it is important to know the difference.

Believe it or not there is a difference between a job and a career! It's possible to choose a job quickly (though it may be hard to land one in this economic climate) but to find a career that's right for you, you need to take some time to think about what it is you truly love to do! It requires that you think carefully and do the research so that you can make the right choice.

The process of identifying a career that suits you is called Career Exploration. This is not the same as job searching. Job searching is a short-term pursuit of a position that temporary fits into your financial and/or career goals. Career exploration is a longer, progressive process of deliberately choosing the education and training required, and going after jobs that fit your interests and skills.

This process involves:

Choosing an occupation that is related to your discipline of study. Be sure that what you have chosen is an occupation and not a discipline. For example, Advertising is a discipline, Copywriter and Account Executive are occupations within that discipline.

Please note:

Gather as much information as possible about your options.

What are the primary work tasks?         
What are typical work hours?
What education is required?
What skills are required to do the job well?

Learn about potential employers (companies) who hire people in your chosen occupation.

Identify three specific employers who would hire someone in your occupation and research them.

How do I get this information?

The Internet
Use Search Engines such as Google, Ask and Yahoo search to find out about your options.

Employer websites- These provides lots of information about companies and their job vacancies.

O*NET-Gives you a wide range of information about careers. This is an American based website but its information is relevant in some areas of the Jamaican job market.
