Choosing your Career

In order to choose a career you need to know your interests, strengths, values, personality, and skills. It is important to do an objective study of these aspects before you explore career opportunities.

The second part of choosing a career is to know your options. An exhaustive research in the area of your career interests should be able to help you decide on a job that fits you best. You also need to look for a field in which there is sufficient potential for growth and choose your career accordingly.

Thirdly, compare your options, weigh them in the light of your interests, skills and personal commitments before you decide on your career.

Final Thoughts

While it is important to choose a career where there is potential for growth, it is imperative to know which are the emerging fields and choose a career in that area to ensure a steady career growth. Most industries today are facing a level of saturation in growth and the availability of jobs are getting fewer and fewer by the day.

Careers in AI are opening up according to a study by Pysa, the top 20 AI companies are spending more than $650 million to hire AI talent and that there are more than 10,000 positions available at top employers across the US alone. Career planning is an important aspect of choosing a career. The good news is if you are already in a related field you can update your skills and poise yourself for growth and adventure in the field of AI.
