Making Study and Career Decisions

How?

  1. Sifting a number of career options to decide which sectors, and roles seem most attractive to you;
  2. choosing between options for study;
  3. making a final choice between two or more options, or the option to take a job or continue with study.

Often you will need to decide, without all the information that you would like or need.

  1. Noting the time frames and use your time wisely so that you are not pressured into a last-minute decision; and
  2. planning ahead, and act quickly where you can. For example, reduce the information gap by using your research skills, talking with people and asking for the information you need; and
  3. Booking a consultation session if you are struggling to make progress on your own.
