high paying jobs

With the economy shrinking, many job-hunters are looking for a new career that pays well – and they need to find one that's not going to disappear. Here are the careers that are forecast for strong growth over the next decade, based on Bureau of Labor Statistics projections through 2016.
Robin Ryan, career coach and author of 60 Seconds and You're Hired says, "I look at where you can make good money, where employers are looking for people and saying they can't find them."
She notes that the federal growth forecasts are a couple of years old, and some fields are undergoing rapid change. Be on the lookout

Job fairs, before, during and after…7 R’s

Research – know the employers attending the fair, familiarize yourself with their business, and have questions ready to ask your top three employers (questions that focus on their industry, their operations and their hiring needs)

Resume – proofread, get feedback from at least three people about your resume (pick the best editors you know), and bring plenty of copies (more than you plan on distributing)

Ready? – have everything ready to go the night before so that you are not hurried the day of the event. Make a checklist (similar to this) and review the day before:
1. professional outfit pressed ____
2. resumes reviewed and printed____
3. research completed____
4. top 3 employers identified____
5. map to job fair location printed____
6. supplies ready (pens, portfolio, business cards)____

Rest – get a good night’s sleep so you can be fresh, enthusiastic, and energetic the day of the job fair

Day of the job fair:

Relax – once you show up to the event, slow down, look over the event program and locate your most desirable employers – (make sure you get to those employers first, but still make time to talk to as many employers as possible, you never know who may have the best opportunity for you) and then go out there and be your outstanding professional self.

After the job fair:

Review – look over any notes you took at the job fair, any contact information you collected, and reflect on your performance during conversations with employers (always room for improvement) – do this as soon as you can after the event, so that your memory is fresh and you can move forward with your next steps

Re-connect – if any employer has asked you to follow-up, or if you have any lingering curiosity about a company or a position, take advantage of your new found contact information and re-connect with them. Building a strong network is key and a quick follow-up time is a good way to start new professional relationships.

How To Find The Work You Were Meant To Do

Many people find themselves on a journey to find that one job or that one elusive career that they are just ‘meant’ to do. They know it’s ‘out there’ somewhere as they continue their quest for a meaningful career.
But in a modern economy characterised by technology, globalisation and continuous restructuring and change - the job you were ‘meant’ to do may well dissappear from your industry, town or your country. What then..?
That’s when the notion of finding that one job/career you were ‘meant’ to do comes into question. And why I don’t really think there really is one single job we’re ‘meant’ to do. Even if there were, the modern reality is that it’s unwise to pin your career on the one job anyway - as it may well dissappear.
Instead, I think that we’re all equipped with a specific set of talents and unique abilities that, once discovered, allow us to apply them in any number of roles and vocations. It’s the application of those talents in the service of something that is bigger than ourselves that creates meaning.
The key to finding meaning, is to discover those natural talents and then find people, organisations or a cause that can benefit from those talents - rather than a specific ‘ideal job’. When you do that, you stop the search for the ‘one perfect job’ and instead create a career filled with a string of meaningful roles.
BUT, it’s worthwhile mentioning that ‘meaning’ doesn’t necessarily have to come from your work - it can come from elsewhere - your homelife, your family, your community, your religion, your hobbies, interests etc. If that’s the case, you may need to restructure your work life to give you the time, money and resources to achieve meaning elsewhere.
