Changing Your Job At Difficult Times

For the past few years, job changing was a scenario among the Malaysian and in the world workforce. Companies staff-pinched experienced employees from competitors to work for them. Head-hunters approached knowledge workers to offer them higher pay, better benefits and fatter packages. Even the young and inexperienced people entering the workforce were likely to change jobs a few times before they finally settled down in a company to offer their lifelong services.

This desire for a change in jobs or career in life is natural because human beings are not easily contented with what they have already possessed. Career change is a reality of modern workplace, regardless of your age, sex, education, experience and position. If you have been counting the hours until the end of the workday, feeling the sting of not being promoted fairly, or wondering whether your superiors are taking your hard work for granted, perhaps you have already made up your mind to leave the current job and look forward to a new challenge in the world of work.

But before you act, consider the cause and effect of changing your job. Given the negative scenario of employment and not knowing when this economic turmoil will end, you need to take more precautions to make sure you land a better job than your current one. You certainly need more information about the industry, field or profession to help you assess the gains and losses as a result of changing your job. Useful information will also give you more options should you decide that it is time for you to make the move.

Take into consideration what is happening in your department, company and industry. The national economy, the community, employment trends, demand for your expertise as well as competition from others can affect your job and you in many ways. Ideally, you want to be able to identify and recognize career advancements as well as obstacles. A brief analysis on your own strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and the challenges ahead will help you visualise your career objective more clearly.

Can you think, where is ronaldinho today, if he change his career player football to american football or other games. We have lost one of the utility player in football arena. How about Tiger Woods change him career to football player. I think him in out of history today. Him isnot good football player but him is golf player.
