Career Planning ~ Landing the Job You'll Love!
Did you know:
- Individuals will change jobs 10-14 times by the time they are 38 years old (on average, every 2 years.)
- The projected top 10 jobs in 2010 didn’t exist in 2004 according to Richard Riley, Department of Education.
- The current workforce contains four distinct age-related cultural and values based generations all needing to work together.
The trend today is toward hiring consultants and independent contractors rather than traditional employees. Sending jobs off-shore continues. And, those being downsized are becoming entrepreneurs. You need to create and continually re-invent a career plan that allows you to adapt in this rapidly changing world - you need the tools to navigate change! Destination College & Beyond helps you build the tool kit.
