Career Advice For Your Midlife Crisis - 7 Tips

You've enjoyed your career for the past twenty years - maybe more. And now you're wondering: Maybe it's time to switch gears. A whole new career. Work at home. Retire.

Or maybe you're forced to revise your career due to layoffs or transfers.

(1) Expect midlife career change to be easier than entering the world of employment for the first time.

Most likely you enjoy a financial cushion: savings, home equity, and a retirement fund. You also have demonstrated skills and experience. If you're employed, your company probably offers resources for developing new skills and managing the transition.

(2) Expect midlife career change to be harder because you've invested in a career identity - way beyond skills and values. When you introduce yourself as, "Here's what I do..." you are also saying, "Here's who I am."

(3) Expect to change your appearance as you change careers.

Sadly, many individuals and organizations really do judge a book by its cover. Clients who want to start a business often are surprised by the increased need to dress up for presentations. An Armani label on a suit? A good start. But are yu wearing this year's suit? Colors that your target market deems "appropriate?"

Many career changes have opted for lower income in exchange for the opportunity to stay home and work in sweats or shorts - and, for women, say good-by to high heels and pantyhose forever.

(4) Recognize that career change often requires a geographic move.

Let's face it: Some places are just better for some careers. Your cost of living may be lower in a small city, but your opportunities to network will be limited. On the other hand, the lower cost of living may allow you to experiment with riskier ventures.

Often your own business doesn't depend on geography. Examples include Internet businesses, mail order shipment, and free lance writing. But you may need to keep on top of mainstream trends and where you live can influence your credibility.

(5) Expect to change your roles in all aspects of your life.

Family and community will view you differently. Some community groups assign You may have more or less time for your family (and they will view you differently). Board members based on the prestige of their day job. Some volunteer activities require you to be available on certain weekdays.

(6) Plan for a new social support system.

Lunch with coworkers. Drinks after work. Dinner with old friends on Friday night. You don't realize how much you enjoyed this support until it's gone.

Friendships change. When you leave a career, former colleagues can regard you with envy or suspicion. They won't understand your new world and the new challenges you face.

(7) Forget the myth, "If you can't be happy here, you won't be happy anywhere."

Many of my clients experienced career change following what seemed to be a midlife crisis. They were surprised to find their whole world looked different.

And that's why I say, "Career breakdown can be the first step to your major career breakthrough."

ENFP Careers Advice

ENFP personalities are one of the 16 personality types from the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator and are known for being fun, open and enthusiastic. Their career strengths are different to those of others personalities. This means there are some jobs and careers they are well suited for and others that they may find challenging and less enjoyable.

Everyone needs careers advice that's specific to their own personality and situation rather than generic guidance and as a career coach, and an ENFP myself, I know the advice below is spot on!

1. Start with your heart

As opposed to diving straight in and examining your skills and qualifications, try first considering what you want to do. People with this personality need to enjoy their careers as for them work isn't just somewhere they go or something they do. For them it is often an expression of who they are. This means that it needs to be meaningful and fulfilling.

So the first piece of careers advice I would give is 'Start With Your Heart'. This isn't the same as saying just follow your heart as there are certainly other factors to be taken into consideration, but first of all look inside and decide what you really want to do.

2. Career strengths - build on them

You might think it sounds obvious to build a career based on your strengths, but sadly it's all too easy to follow a path better suited to someone else. This is usually because you aren't aware of your strengths or possibly you've received inappropriate advice.

The career strengths people with this personality often have include great people skills, creativity, adaptability and the flexibility to turn your hand to many things if you want to.

There are many areas where you can use these including teaching, social work, counseling, psychology, marketing, design, event management and many creative areas.

3. Got weaker areas?

In the same way that they often have signature career strengths, there are usually areas they find more challenging. This often seems to include follow-through, the need for flexibility, attention to detail and impersonal environments or those they perceive to be critical.

It makes sense to avoid career paths which don't need your strengths but instead demand skills in an area you are less talented in. This can include auditing, accounting, computer programming and other detail-oriented IT work, manufacturing, cold calling and admin work.

This doesn't mean you need to look for work that doesn't include any of these things as most jobs will have elements you are not as keen on, but you may find it easier to flourish in a role that doesn't focus on one or more of your weaker areas.

4. Finding the right career - more than personality

Although your personality is undoubtedly important and can be a helpful guide when finding the right career, it shouldn't be the only thing you consider.

Other factors to consider include: skills and skill level, qualifications, interest areas, which jobs and careers paths are available and growing in the area where you are looking.

5. Job hopping or undecided? Build variety into your career path

These folks love variety and have many interests, as do people with a scanner personality. This can result in a low boredom threshold and if their current job doesn't offer them variety or challenge they may end up job hopping.

To avoid the many disadvantages of job hopping, try building variety and change into a job or career path. Ways to do this include working in environments with a lot of change, doing project-based work, having 2 different part-time jobs or working for a small company where you get to do many different roles.

If you're an ENFP and have been following generic careers advice and found yourself miserable in your job, that may have been where you've been going wrong. There's nothing wrong with you, you've just been following the wrong advice. Perhaps now you need to look at careers advice tailored to you.

Katie Stephens is a career coach at ENFP Careers where we help ENFPs to choose enjoyable and meaningful careers. We also show ENFPs, scanner personalities, and some folks, how to build variety and change into their careers as an alternative to job hopping.

Careers and New Graduates - Advice For Moving Out and Moving on Even During a Recession

Stand out by writing and living your worklife mission and learn the new rules for careers. It also might help your parents if you moved out of your old room or the basement.

Start with a new paradigm, a new mindset. Find organizations that support your worklife mission and fight to join them. Generations ago it was your parents and even grandparents that thought they would be in one career path and maybe with one company. That was the dream of dreams. Then you could settle down in life. Well, forget that mindset. If that's the lottery you want to hit you will probably have lottery odds to get into one career path, climb the corporate ladder and retire that way. Who checks time with a watch anyway? It's on your IPhone or PDA or whatever. In many ways, you need grasp the idea that you will have some major career shifts and, most likely, change careers during your career. A career must be viewed as a sequence of jobs and probably a sequence of career paths. How can I make this claim? All industries change and as the industry changes then you must change with it. It's Internet warp speed. No industry remains stagnant and if a business that serves that industry does not change then that business faces changes of its own.

Look at the way the construction business or housing industry has changed in the last year. Look at the technology and software industries. Have they changed? How about the music and entertainment industry? Any changes you noticed? They change daily. How about the oil business, the airlines and others? Okay, you have the point. Either the business, technology, people and economies change or something shifts. For those shifts any jobseeker or person who intends to have a long career must embrace change.

Now for a healthy outlook on your career path I recommend you:

1. Accept Change. To open a door to a new career jobseekers must focus on accepting change as reality. So look at the ways you have learned and enjoy learning. Express this in achievements and keywords in your resume and career marketing materials. Be ready to respond swiftly to the needs of corporations by offering different aspects of your background. No longer are resume just dry ways to demonstrate your employment during high school, college, through internships, military or other experiences. You must give line and verse about what you have done and how it applies to the position you are going for next. That means get ready to edit your resume for each position you apply for online or offline. Change happens abruptly in business. It happens abruptly throughout many a career path. What's in our control? You control your actions and your attitudes; that may be about all you can control. Control the content within your resume. Develop your volunteer experiences, key class projects, athletic or other achievements. Everything must be looked at, developed and considered. Some new graduates think they have nothing to offer. You do if you market it properly.

2. Look Beyond the Surface. According to career authors and other representatives from the major search engines, something less than 5% of leads are advertised on the big job boards. So where does the typical jobseeker or the typical new graduate spend their time looking for jobs? I would argue they spend 95% of their energy focused on Internet job boards. This is a good starting point. In fact, sites like Craig's List offer opportunities and danger too. As a new graduate you need to search and find your target audience. Recruiters don't just look on the major sites for resumes. They are working the social networking sites like Facebook and the more professional networking sites like LinkedIn. Those are not the only ones either! So if you information isn't loaded there and you don't know why you need to campaign in that way then you are out of date. You are not savvy or sophisticated. Weddle's Guides and Peter Weddle himself an Internet guru stated personally to me that there are dozens of sites for niche industries being developed weekly. In fact, he suggested that recruiters are more interested in finding you doing something they might want to hire you for than downloading your CV from the big sites. So where could you go and what could you do to be seen as someone serious? Remember you must think this way even if you are in a path toward law school, med school or are not sure what you want to be when you grow up.

3. Go for Your Mission not Just a Job. Take an entrepreneurial approach to your future. How do I want my life to be in 10 years and what career path may be the best vehicle to that path? What do I want my reputation to be in five years? What is my Worklife Mission? Everything you do should be geared toward these goals and aspirations. If you are looking for a job and not a career a lot of this advice might not matter. If you are just trying to pay bills then who cares what you do or who you do it for. But if you can compose more than your 30--second commercial - develop a Worklife Mission statement. Pick career opportunities that may advance you toward who and what you want to be in five or more years. Current Bureau of Labor Statistics numbers suggest that 65% of people don't like their jobs. But what do they do about this dissatisfaction? Where do they go to take proactive, positive action on finding their professional calling, their next steps? To properly research new ideas you can use the big job boards like Monster.com or CareerBuilder.com. Other sources of information may come as easy as finding articles and information from a variety of sources: industry journals, company websites, blogs, volunteer organization sites, DOT, OOH, ONET and other resources. In a competitive job market, it's hard enough for job seekers on a steady career path to get their resumes noticed. If you are pursuing a new direction, it's all that much more difficult to convince hiring managers to take a chance on you. Study and read. Utilize insiders to help you network. Pick jobs that will give you part of what you want to be in 10 years. Move toward something specific. Also, please stop looking for a job and start looking for opportunities. Employers want people who want opportunities. If you want to stand out then take the attitude that you want an opportunity.

4. Lastly, start dealing with the gaps and mistakes you made during college. So you didn't get that internship that you wanted? You didn't really have that great of summer jobs? You didn't do all those volunteer things you thought you would do? Well then start doing them now. Start volunteering. Ask for the experiences you need and give away your time and expertise for free. No, don't wait. Do it right now. In the meantime you may have to get two jobs, three jobs or even put up with being underemployed until you make up this lost ground. Mistakes that new graduates make usually means that they want to utilize the same poor decisions they made during school as they attempt to compete in the marketplace. That just simply won't work. As professionals, many of my clients need a makeover and to understand they must self-study in order to research, define and emphasize key qualifications for these new goals and objectives. If you have not earned them start earning them now. With that attitude you will probably be hired into a position you want.

5. Your Resume Must Be Outstanding. What do the potential hiring managers want to see in a resume? Here's a tip - they want to see what you can do for them now and how you will drive revenue and reduce cost for them now. What do they want to see in you if you ran a construction operation but now want to consider selling industrial products? Hire a professional to interview you and market you. Good writing, proper use of keywords and a marketing oriented resume sells in person and online. You need to ask yourself tough questions to come up with original documents. In a behavioral interview for major account management, how will you relate your transferable skills or the experiences you gained to date? What if you were in the military and you want to be in a federal job? That may make sense. But how do you relate your class experiences, jobs, internships, military experiences and whatever you have into a corporate assignment in finance, sales or operations? The list goes and could go on forever. They don't need to know dry work history or a listless listing of dates, times and responsibilities but they do need to understand the transferable skills, keywords and strategy you intend to take with them in communicating your specific and immediate value. Any savvy jobseeker and especially a career changer may need to clearly write down, analyze and synthesize raw data to feature why they are marketable and why they should be interviewed. A great resume or personal marketing material must brand you across many platforms - online, offline, personal, professional.

Congratulations on earning your degree. You must look for an opportunity not a handout. You want to earn your future. Now go out and fight with passion for your career life and your all important worklife mission. And get out of the basement room at your parents house!

Singles and Career Transition - Advice From Those Who Did it and Persevered

As a career coach who helps people navigate their career transition with ease, I tend to hear one point of view more than any other -- that it's hard to make a change when you don't have a partner to support you financially and otherwise. For this reason, I thought it would be worth seeking genuine feedback from real people who made it happen for their careers without a partner to support them.

Below you'll find some very insightful answers to some questions I posed on singles in career transition. I hope they offer hope and inspiration to single people like you, who feel ready to leap out of their comfort zone and embark on an exciting new career path, but may need a final few words of encouragement!

What advice can you share for singles who are stepping out of their comfort zone and pursuing a career that truly makes them happy?

" When you are single you can take greater risks than if you have a spouse and kids depending on you. For that reason alone it is easier to make the big career moves as a single person rather than a married one."

- Sheilah Etheridge, Owner, SME Management: Management and Accounting Consultant

Anchorage, Alaska

Tips from Hallie: There are pros and cons to being partnered during career transition and to being single. Your job is to capitalize on the positive aspects of your situation. Don't let being single hold you back. There's no reason it should. Sheilah is right on, as a single person you can choose where you want to go and what you want to do - and you can do it right now. Being single offers an enormous amount of freedom to take bigger risks like changing your location, or completely changing your career path.

"Follow your dreams, literally. What do you day dream about doing? What comes to you while driving or out on a walk in nature? What do you wake up thinking about doing? What comes in when the rational mind is turned OFF is the dream that could be your reality. Follow it with a gang of people you Love. After all... life is Love, and you are never solo."

- Viveca Stone-Berry, Author of The Fatigue Be Gone! Jumpstart e-Guide; Founder, The Get Ready For Love! Show - GetReadyForLove.com

Tips from Hallie: One of the things single people feel will make their career transition harder is the fact that they're alone. Viveca reminds us that this doesn't have to be true. You have a support network all around you of friends, family, fellow career seekers and career coaches like me. The key is to tap into that network and ask them to help you during your career transition. Identify what you need the most help with whether it's staying motivated, managing your time while you search for a job after hours, or networking in the field you're interested in pursuing. Then ask for what you need. Request their support and help, don't be shy. Friends and family will be happy to support you in pursuing your passion.

"If you're a single career woman, I'd say now's the time to take the risks. When you are single, *you* call the shots on your own life. At the end of the day, it's all about choices and what sacrifices you are choosing to make. This may include forgoing one career for another, or reshuffling things so that you can have BOTH careers, or that old chestnut: deciding that your work is more important than getting married and having kids and the white picket fence."

- Regina Yau, Associate Director at RUSS Consulting

Tips from Hallie: There really is no perfect time to make a career transition. You need to decide when it's the right time for you to make the move. You can always come up with reasons not to so I encourage you to set those aside and take the plunge. This doesn't mean be irrational about it, but don't let your fears stand in your way. As a single person, you are the only one calling the shots so in some ways making the change can be easier when you're single. As Regina says, it's all about choices and what sacrifices you are willing to make. There may be sacrifices, but I promise they are worth it. I always say: small sacrifices, big rewards.

The Final Word on Singles in Career Change...

Bottom line, there is no absolutely perfect time to make a career change. Both situations (single or not) have their pros and cons. It is what it is and you have capitalize on the pros and learn to manage the cons. What you need to do as a career seeker is make the best of the situation you have, create a plan and be smart about the change - but also take a leap of faith. There's always a risk in career change, you just have to minimize those risks and seek out the support needed to keep you motivated. With patience and experience, you will learn to overcome the obstacles in your way.

Mid career change tips-5 easy steps to a perfect career

So, you are considering a career change and want to Board of career change. Good for you. It is important that you get satisfaction and fulfillment from your job or career.

However, some people in your life may not see it that way. You may feel that you shouldn't be changing careers "at your age" and that "it is a job, you are not supposed to like it." But both of these are very false. It is important, though, to assess your situation and find a career that is right for you. When you do that, you have all the ammunition you need to fight these nay sayers that want to stay where you are.

1. your current job is satisfactory?

This is the most important question to ask and one that is often overlooked. In fact, you like the job? You must drag yourself to the Office or shop or any every day? Fear returning to work after a day out? Keep a log of how you react to various issues in the workplace. Jot down various thoughts you have on your work all day-those who are positive and negative. Not enough focus on tasks; also think about the company culture, co workers and other factors. For example, you work for a company but are more idealistic in nature?

2. assess your skills, interests and personal values.

There are lots of free skills assessments and evaluations of interest that you can take over the internet. Think about things you have done in the past that you liked, including volunteer work, work that you did in high school or college and jobs they liked. Take a look at your skills and lasting values. Is your current career directing them? There are some really good sites out there that can give you some advice to solid career change and point you in the right direction.

3. know the difference between edit jobs and careers.

When you change jobs you are typically one side shift. A career change is usually not even on the same scale and often require different or additional skills. When deciding on a move, take a moment to think about it. You are making a lateral movement? Or you are making a move in a job that challenges you and asking more of you that your current job?

4. do your homework.

Select several career choices and read about them. Read the requirements as well as any additional training or skills that are needed. Changing careers is not something you want to walk into blindly.

5. talk to who is already there.

Talk to a few professionals who are already in the career of your choice. They can be great sources of advice of career change. Ask if you can shadow them for a few hours or a few days so that you can get an idea of what it entails. Ask questions and learn about the training and the skills that are necessary to reach the place that they are.

Career Advice for College Freshman

Once upon a time, college freshmen arrived on campus excited to meet their roommates, cheer on their football teams, and attend a frat party or two.

Not anymore. Today's freshmen are heading straight for the career center.

According to at AP story "Colleges: Freshmen looking for career advice now" by Kathy Matheson, campus career centers are becoming more popular with college freshmen than tailgating and late-night pizza delivery. Whether it's due to the slow economic recovery or their already jam-packed schedules, this generation of college students (aka the Millennials) are ready to jump-start their post-college careers now.

And they are on the right track. Getting a college degree is expensive and time-consuming. The more college freshmen can learn about possible career paths, and which ones are right for them, the easier their transition will be into the working world.

No matter what stage you are at in your college career, here are some tips you can take to prepare yourself for the future.

Talk to a Professional

One of the best ways to learn more about a potential career path is to talk to someone who's actually living your dream. Talk to your friends, your parents, and friends of your parents to see who knows someone in your field. Then ask if you can take them to coffee or lunch, and pick their brain. (If a face-to-face meeting doesn't work, email is a good option.)

The more questions you can ask him or her about what your career will entail, the better. Find out about education requirements, typical work hours, and advancement opportunities. Ask them what's most challenging about their jobs, and what's most rewarding. From their answers, you should have a better sense of whether or not this career is right for you.

An added bonus: meeting with a career professional can help you network for a job down the road. (Just don't forget to write them a thank you note or email afterwards, and to stay in touch throughout your college years!)

Work, Intern or Volunteer

You're going to learn some great things in the classroom-there's no doubt about it. Writing skills, critical thinking skills, and research skills are all part of a college degree that will be invaluable in the future. But what you can learn by working, interning, or volunteering, particularly in your chosen field, will be equally important after graduation.

For starters, you'll learn the computer programs, business processes, and office etiquette rules that you'll need when you enter the workforce. Knowing how to use the entire Microsoft Office Suite, how to deal with a gossiping co-worker, and how to administer and run a meeting on FUZE are skills you won't learn in lecture, but that will come in handy throughout your career. Little details like how to answer a phone and administer a meeting may not seem like a big deal, but they'll make an impact on future employers.

Working, interning, and volunteering can also be a great way to build your resume and begin building a professional network. Many college graduates land jobs directly with their college employers or through their recommendations, so this is a great way to get a jump on your competition.

And don't underestimate the impact a college job can have on your future career. Getting exposure in your field, even if it's as a temp or assistant, can give you insight into that career and what it entails. It may reaffirm that it's the right choice, or you may realize it's not what you thought, which will save you a lot of time and money you might invest pursuing that path.

Consider a Double Major (or Minor)

Are you on the fence about what you want to do? Are you thinking about becoming a doctor, but you also really want to learn Spanish? Why not major in biology and Spanish, or consider a foreign language minor?

Double majoring or minoring can be beneficial to your future career for several reasons. First, it gives you versatility, and shows potential employees that you have a wide variety of skills they can put to use at their companies. Two, it can be a perfect fit for a careers that don't have a clear-cut degree path. (For example, if you want to own your own PR firm someday, you might benefit from a journalism or communications degree with a business minor. Or vice versa). And three, it can give you the flexibility to change your mind about your career and what you want to do in the future.

Visit Your Career Center

Most schools have a career center dedicated to one purpose: helping you find a job. In addition to providing counseling and insight about what career is right for you, they'll help you with the nitty gritty of the job search: how to prepare a resume, how to write a cover letter, where to conduct your job search, and much more. Plus career centers often get a heads up on job opportunities, so being dialed in to their email groups and websites can give you a jump on potential job openings. Some career centers even host job and career fields throughout the school year, giving you the chance to meet directly with future employers.

Check in With Your Advisor

In addition to the career center, your advisor can be a valuable resource in your career search. It's a college advisors jobs to know the ins and outs of every class option available, as well as what you need to graduate with a particular major.

So if you've got a question about which classes will best prepare you to become a rocket scientist, ask them. If you're thinking you might want to become and architect and want to know the difference between the B.Arch and a Master's of Architecture, ask them. If you're a business major and want to know if you've completed enough prereqs and business classes to graduate, ask them. That's what they're there for.

Do Your Research

The field you choose to pursue, whether it's medicine or law or teaching, should be something you love. (The more you love it, the better you'll be at it, and the more satisfaction you'll get.) But it doesn't hurt to do some research first, and find out which careers in that field offer the best compensation, potential for growth, and job outlook. If you're interested in medicine, for example, but aren't sure about going to medical school, it may help to know that registered nurses and physicians assistants are seeing unprecedented job growth in their respective fields.

Can help a Test career advice?

The myriad career options available today can actually work often to confuse or even create a sense of fear escape in people, causing them to ignore the need for proper career exploration process. The consequences of avoiding the career exploration, however, is that people can, often years down the track, find themselves working in occupations that offer little or no job satisfaction.

When this occurs often people find it difficult to understand how and why their career journey has taken them to where they are. Is easy to miss the sign placed on the road to career exploration and decide not to take a path toward career satisfaction people may be reaching a dead-end career and needing a career change.

Taking a test career consulting or assessment while helpful at any stage of the career exploration process can be particularly useful in those early stages of the career exploration process in order to help people to think actively about the type of jobs that may be interested. This may seem simple and in some respects is, however you would be surprised how many people unhappy working in a job or career for many years without every having really thought about the types of careers that can be better suited to them.

Career counseling tests are often used by career counselors, because although it is unlikely to be the only answer to find your ideal career, often are a great starting point to help flesh out ideas and provide options that can be cut up and explored in more detail. From a perspective of career counselors a test career counselling can provide a client with the opportunity to explore career interests in a well structured and productive.

A cautionary word before you rush out and grab a career counseling tests, or assessment however. While any process that gets people actively thinking and explore yourself and your career options can be a good thing from a perspective of orientation, it is important to recognise that many career counseling tests or quizzes on the internet are not designed to be valid or reliable test, but rather just fun tools to explore career options or interests. If such career quizzes are taken with this understanding and with this knowledge, then there is no harm in taking a career quiz for a bit of fun, however, unfortunately many of these tests purport to be something they are not, and this may have negative consequences. Although no test career advice is likely to provide "the answer" (as there is never only one response), there are definitely some career advice tests that are better than others.

One of the ways people can spot a career counseling tests of good quality by a quiz unreliable is see if developer test is prepared make available research data. Two of the best tests available on the internet that I always use to review their research reliability and validity data are evidence of career advice to strong interest inventory and Myers Briggs. These tests are very popular and especially their validity and reliability of data are freely available on the internet and can be accessed with a quick search engine search. Readers will find that, unlike the career quiz, these tests of better quality career advice are not free, but when you consider the importance of making good career choice, then perhaps spending a small amount of money on a test career consulting is an essay more correct!
