flexitimers_logoWhat to do with a CV? Upload it to the databases. The employment statistics show us that far more candidates are getting hired by uploading the CV to the online databases than just applying for the jobs on the jobs sites and sending it to the employers.

Career Direction – Career Tests & Assessments

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008


I have posted quite a few articles on your CV and how to excel at interview. But what about those of you who don’t know what you want to do. There are many employees in Ireland in the wrong job but feel lost as they don’t know what to do next.

There is no point writing a CV or preparing for interviews. You must sit back and analyse the situation. Try to understand yourself providing clarity and career direction.

If you find this difficult to do you can access career assessment tests to support this self discovery. There are tools like personality questionnaires, ability tests and interest inventories. Many organisations use these too to see if you are the right person for their company so why don’t you use these tool to see if you are right for a particular career or job.

To support you through this process there are many career coaching services in Ireland.

When you know what road you want to take pop back to the site and the many resources and article can help you land that dream job.
