Career Exploration and Career Stuff: Current information

(been busy with life the last few weeks – hope to get back into writing blog posts – thank you for reading.  With the vast amount of stuff out there, I do appreciate you taking the time to read stuff on this web site)

Series of Blog posts on career stuff. Focus will be on career exploration and Internet job resources. My hope is that you will find the information helpful in your career journey. As with anything you read on the internet, please evaluate the information you read and use the specific information that helpful to you.

Careers can change with time – some job positions can fade away; new job positions appear and some jobs may do tasks differently. With jobs able to change – it can be helpful to have current information.  Some ideas to have current information:
• Book – when you find a Book find the publication date
• Check the date when content (video, audio or print) created on the Internet (if the content has a date next to it)
• People – you can talk to people about their profession – information likely current unless the person left a career field many years ago; as you talk to people, check to see if the person is still in the field or when did the person leave the profession
• Personal experience – if you are currently working in a field or you recently left a career field – your information likely current; if you left a field many years ago, and thinking about getting back into the field – your information may not be current; – may want to do other tasks to explore the career field so that you can get current information on the career field; and verify the field the way you remember it may years ago

Current information on a career can be useful – careers can change with time – so current career information can be helpful.
