Education And Preparation Go Hand in Hand
There is no time like the present! So as you look around, take advantage of educational resources. Trade schools, community colleges, and state colleges tend to offer great educational values. Balance your preferences and opportunity on a bed of resources, and hook yourself a career that will take care of your needs. Here are some basic suggestions on where to start:
1) Explore this Blog and all the different links that are available and become familiar with it's contents.
2) Network with friends, family, and ward members. Tell them you are looking for a job, and bounce off career ideas with all those whom you know may give the best advice.
3) Don't be afraid to retool now! It is never too late to go back to school to gain that practical knowledge that will eventually land you that "better job". Too often, we keep meaning to go back, and in the mean time, we fail to progress.
