A college degree is a key to the future. But which door do you want to unlock? Choosing a career can seem overwhelming, but it can be as simple as following a few steps, making a few phone calls and doing a little homework.

大學文憑被看做開啟未來的鑰匙。然而你希望打開的是哪扇大門呢？職業(yè)選擇是一個令人頭痛的問題，可是這個問題也可以輕松解決，按照接下來的幾步做好準備，機會就會來敲門咯。

Step 1: Ask Yourself

第一步：問自己

Career counselors and personality tests can help you focus on what's right for you. Ask yourself -- what do I love so much I'd do it for free? What am I good at? What type of personality do I have? The answers will lead you to a satisfying job.

職業(yè)咨詢顧問和自我測試都可以給予很好的幫助。問問自己：

1.我喜歡什么工作？

2.我擅長什么？

3.我的個性是什么樣的？

Step 2: Keep An Open Mind

第二步：發(fā)展思維多方面考慮

Just about any degree -- even accounting and law -- offers more possibilities than most college graduates realize. And some careers have many paths. For instance, career expert and author of "Cool Careers For Dummies" Marty Nemko points out there are many different kinds of attorneys. Some spend a lot of time in court, others work on contracts.

無論什么專業(yè)，甚至會計和法律都可以從很多方面來規(guī)劃自己的職業(yè)生涯。一些職業(yè)還有許多不同的發(fā)展方向。比如說有的律師的工作是出庭辯護，有的是起草法案文書。

Step 3: Job Shop

第三步：思考工作

Salary and benefits are just two parts of a much larger equation. Think about where you want to work, who you want to work with, the type of environment you like, travel and opportunities for advancement. After you've narrowed it down, contact someone who's working in the field that interests you. Your university alumni office can help you find a professional who's willing to answer your questions. Ask them what it takes to be successful in the field, the best things about the job and the drawbacks.

薪水和福利只是選擇工作時需要考慮的兩個很小的部分。想想你希望在哪里工作，和什么樣的人一起共事，工作的環(huán)境如何，是不是想出差還有自我提升的機會。在將這些因素確定下來后，和一位在這個領(lǐng)域工作并且讓你感興趣的人。大學的校友會可以幫忙找到能為你解答職業(yè)疑問的專家，問他們怎樣才能在你感興趣的領(lǐng)域得到發(fā)展，以及這份工作的好處和缺點會在哪里。

Step 4: Good Company

第四步：目標公司

To pick the organization you want to work for... skip the corporate website. Instead... research the Best Companies to Work For lists. Read newspaper and magazine articles for the low-down on how those companies are doing. Don't settle... You'll never get a second chance to choose your first job. And you can do it!

不用再網(wǎng)上搜尋你想為之工作的公司信息，而是直接瞄準最適宜工作的公司排行榜。在報紙和雜志上找尋這些公司的真實狀況。千萬不能將就……第一份工作，人生只有一次。而且你一定可以找到它！
