Read the text carefully and choose the correct answer, questions from 1 to 4:
Choosing a career may be one of the hardest jobs you ever have, and it must be done
with care. View a career as an opportunity to do something you love, not simply as a way to earn a living.
Deciding what matters most to you is essential to making the right decision. You may
want to begin by assessing your likes, dislikes, strengths, and weaknesses. Think about the
classes, hobbies, and surroundings that you find most appealing. Ask yourself questions,
such as “Would you like to travel? Do you want to work with children? Are you more suited
to solitary or cooperative work?” There are no right or wrong answers; only you know what
is important to you. Determine which job features you require, which ones you would prefer,
and which ones you cannot accept. Then rank them in order of importance to you.
The setting of the job is one factor to take into account. You may not want to sit at a
desk all day. If not, there are diverse occupations – building inspector, supervisor, real estate
agent – that involve a great deal of time away from the office. Geographical location may be
a concern, and employment in some fields in concentrated in certain regions. Advertising job
can generally be found only in large cities. On the other hand, many industries such as
hospitality, law education, and retail sales are found in all regions of the country.
If a high salary is important to you, do not judge a career by its starting wages. Many
jobs, such as insurance sales, offers relatively low starting salaries; however, pay
substantially increases along with your experience, additional training, promotions and commission.
Don’t rule out any occupation without learning more about it. Some industries evoke
positive or negative associations.
