Building life career

No, don't need to start with a coach or a consultant, start by itemizing (make a list if you're a list maker) how you spend your free time, and what you like to do in the temporary jobs you do hold down.  What are you good at?  Then look for jobs that spend most of their time doing the things you like.  I think some sites like monster.com and careerbuilder.com have articles and online tools to help you identify your dream jobs - not 100% sure because I haven't been to either site lately, but I'd be surprised if they didn't.

The first thing would be to figure out what is it that you want to do, then check if you need to go to school or learn some skills in order to do it.

Some people I know are now being interns in fields they want to work at in the future (mostly music producing) and that's how they both get experience and make connections.

Find something you love to do and stick with it! Longevity in a job allows you to move up the ladder of responsibility at the company/business. Good luck!

Your question is four months old, but I'm going to answer it because you may need it and so may others who read this.

It really depends what your education and skills are, as well as where you live and your life stage. I'm going to assume you're young and just starting out.

America is a great country. If you want to succeed, you can work hard and do it. People come to America all the time not knowing anything or even the language, but willing to work hard and learn. They learn the language and within one generation they're providing well for their children. Americans should therefore have even more advantage. Don't let anyone say otherwise.

Be willing to move, especially if you're in a bad economic area or socially unhelpful situation (e.g., bad influences). Also look at what you love to do (even if a hobby) and think about how you can use that in a career. Don't take any jobs that have no potential unless you absolutely need a paycheck, but even some cashier jobs with big companies (Home Depot, Chick-fil-A, Starbucks, etc.) offer some tuition assistance so you can get that degree, or offer a career path potential. The main things are to get started and stick with it.

While you're on the path (and always really) live well within your means, don't get swamped in debt, and concentrate on building your career foundation. Don't play around. Certainly have fun, but know your goal and don't get distracted from getting there. All honest work is noble; make sure you're doing honest work and work hard at it and care about your colleagues--you'll get noticed.

If you're using a Temp agency such as Manpower Inc., take advantage of their training programs which are typically free if you work a certain number of hours per week. If you're not, then consider working through one that does. Manpower has extensive self-paced training programs in a wide variety of fields. Try some that will, 1) help advance your current skills, and 2) develop new skills that are in demand. Example: if you're doing administrative tasks, take some Microsoft Office skills courses, but maybe also learn PhotoShop (if you like design) or some web development courses. One thing that's great about working through an agency is that you get exposure to multiple employers. No matter where you work, work as hard as you would if you OWNED the company. That'll open doors right where you are, or will at least get you a person who'll be happy to write a job reference.

Here's a free Personality ID test that's offered on a career guidance site. http://careerdirectonline.org/personalityID/ It takes 15 minutes and is kind of fun and might give you some self insights. If you're really stuck wondering what to do it might be a good idea to talk to a career counselor, but probably you have some ideas already. Hiring a coach is probably not necessary. The folks above and CareerPath.com offer some further assessment tools for $50-$100 that might be useful too.

Hope this helps. Best wishes for your future!
