Today,it is very difficult for young graduates (畢業(yè)生)to get satisfying jobs.It’s said that there are thousands of different kinds of jobs in the world.Choosing the right one itself is not easy.

“Finding a job” is not the same as “choosing a job”.Many young people end up in a job even though they are not suitable for it.Sometimes “chance” may play a more important part than “decision”.Here are a few steps to help you think about jobs that you might enjoy doing after school or university.

First,it is important to realize what kind of person you are,what special qualities make you outstanding among people and what you are interested in.There is a difference between an interest and a skill.If you like art and enjoy looking at pictures,that is an interest.But if you can draw a horse,that is a skill.

Then ask yourself a question,“In the following three areas—skills with people,skills with information and skills with things,which are your best skills?”

After examining your skills,the next step is to research.To find out as many different kinds of jobs as possible,go to the library and read books,magazines and newspapers for information.Ask your friends what they think of the work they do.Finally,trust your own ideas and your own thinking!It is your own life,just find the job you really enjoy doing.
