Experts believe that there are about 40,000 different types of jobs in the world. Choosing the right one is a difficult job in itself.

    "Finding a job" is not the same as "choosing a job". Many young people end up in a job that they are not suited to. "Chance" may play a more important part than "decision". So here are a few steps to help you think about jobs, which you might enjoy doing after school or university.

    First, it is important to recognize what kind of person you are and which special qualities make you different from everyone else.

    To examine your skills and abilities even further, ask yourself this question: in the following three areas - skills with people, skills with information or skills with things - which are your best skills?

You may have noticed something while you are doing this task. The point is that there is a difference between an interest and a skill. If you like and enjoy looking at pictures, it is an interest. But if you can draw a horse that looks like a horse and not a big dog, that is a skill. The best job is one that uses your skills in something that you are interested in. In addition to this, it is an advantage if you believe that a particular job is worth doing in the world.

After that, the next step is research. To find out as much as possible about different kinds of work, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers. Ask your friends about the work they do. If you are interested in banking, it is better to talk to a bank clerk who is twenty - four, rather than a bank manager who is sixty - four. Do not rely on your parents' friends for information. A younger person will be able to describe a normal day at work and tell you about the interesting or boring things when you first start working.

   Finally, trust your own ideas and your own thinking! It is your own life, so find something that you enjoy doing.
