What Do I Do Now?
What do I do now is a question that many of us are asking ourselves as economic conditions have created changes that have adversely affected our careers. Many of us that believed our careers are just fine, have been laid off from their technology related jobs. Many of us are about to graduate with an engineering degree and finding very limited job opportunities. Some of us need to make the decision, do I search for a new job or start my own enterprise. Still others were passed over for the promotion they expected. The question that stresses us is do I stay or update my resume and look for a new opportunity. If you choose to stay, it’s important to understand why you were passed over and what you can do to win the next promotion. There is nothing we can do to change the economic conditions that can bring about inflection points in both our careers and lives. What we can do is seek to find the answer for What I want you to know, there are resources available to you that can assist you on making choices based on data and experience instead of emotion.
