Avoid the Wrong Job
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- Christensen, Stan, Stanford instructor and a partner at <a href="http://arboradvisors.com">Arbor Advisors</a>, outlines a few of the erroneous career assumptions that land workers in an ill-fitting career. Don't take a job simply to build your resume; follow your passions, rather than guessing what an employer will want. The fun should outweigh the drudgery - even in entry-level positions. Don't feel that by taking one job, you're committing to a career; people switch teams often. And remain a generalist, rather than specializing in a single pursuit, as this will retain your flexibility and keep your skills from becoming irrelevant.
