Giveaway The Career Alphabet

Giveaway The Career Alphabet One of my favorite people, who I met in the early days of JibberJobber, is Billie Sucher.  I reviewed her first book called Between Jobs over three years ago (its still relevant).  This weeks giveaway is her second career book (she has non-career publications) titled Happy About the Career Alphabet.  She gave me a copy in New Orleans so youll either get my signed copy or perhaps I can talk her into mailing it to you (she doesnt know Im writing this post). Heres how one person will get it answer the question below on this blog (not on Facebook or Twitter, etc.) and Billie will choose her favorite response. My question centers around something I saw on the news on Saturday morning.  A young fella from New Orleans was talking about his future and said something like this:  either join the military or go to college those are my two best career paths. I have been thinking about that since I saw it I dont think those are his only career paths, but what bugs me more, are those really career paths?  I guess I would have used a different phrase as Ive traditionally thought of a career path as a sequence of jobs that helps me get to where I end up not the stepping stones to get their.  So heres the question: Assuming you are giving advice to a young person (Ill let YOU define young! :)), what are significant parts of the career path that you help them understand?  In other words, say they want to be a financial planner, CEO of a big company, entrepreneur, etc what are the components that they need to think about for their career? Answer on this blog and Ill ask Billie to pick her fav! The winner of last week will be announced soon. !
