CAREER PERSPECTIVE
You Should Embrace in 2016 
3

• A persons career perspective is how he or she
  views their long-term career goals.

4

• The perspective includes concepts such as which
  type of job is most suitable for a person

5

• the path he or she should take in order to excel
  and how long they should expect to keep the job.

6

• The following are some ideas that should be
  embraced when setting out on your career search
  in 2016.

7
ACCEPT THAT EMPLOYMENT MAY CHANGE
8

• There used to be a time when people could select
  a career and expect to stay on that same job for
  the duration of their lives.

9

• Economic factors and changes in lifestyle and
  company culture make that objective almost
  impossible nowadays.

10

• The modern employee or career holder should
  expect to change occupations at least once during
  the course of his or her life.

11

• Such may occur more than two times in a location
  where turnover is high and the overall age and
  maturity level of executives is low.

12

• Workers should not be discouraged, however,
  because long-lasting careers are still out there
  to be found.

13
SEEK JOBS THAT MATCH YOUR PERSONALITY
14

• A person who seeks to spend a lifetime on a
  career will have to select jobs that match his or
  her personality.

15

• Mismatched choices will almost definitely reduce
  a persons length of stay in a particular job.

16

• Speaking to a career counselor and taking
  advantage of career assessments can help to
  pinpoint areas of interest which better suit your
  personality.

17
BE REALISTIC ABOUT THE COMPETITION
18

• One way that modern-day job applicants mess up is
  by being unrealistic. More than 5 percent of
  people in the United States alone are out of
  work.

19

• That means that many people are often competing
  for the same job positions.

20

• In fact, some employers have changed their hiring
  process to allow a large number of applicants,
  sometimes as many as 100, to come in for group
  interviews.

21

• It is important for modern-day job seekers to be
  realistic about the number of people competing
  for jobs these days and the effort that it takes
  to stand out and be selected over other
  applicants.

22

• The days of walking into a place of employment
  and walking out with a job are almost gone now.

23
REALIZE THAT CREDENTIALS AND EXPERIENCE
DONT ALWAYS EQUAL PROMOTIONS
24

• Another area that people need to adjust with
  their career perspective is the area of
  promotions.

25

• Many people think their career path should
  include quick or easy promotions because of the
  degrees they carry or

26

• the experience that they have had on one job or
  another. That concept could not be farther from
  the truth.

27

• In fact, many employers base their job promotions
  on characteristics that have nothing to do with
  experience or credentials.

28
Employers take these factors quite seriously and
use them to determine whether or not an employee
has earned a promotion.

• They review personality traits

• Success

• Ability to get along with co-workers and
  management staff

29
In 2016, a career-minded individual needs to have
a completely revised game plan than their
counterpart of five years ago.
30
The modern perspective for a long-lasting career
should be realistic but encouraging and simple
but specific.
