Worried about choosing the wrong career?

Get some top tips to help you with your research

When everyone is talking about choosing the right career and making the right decision, it can be really stressful and confusing at the same time.

What you need to know is that it’s not just about the ‘job’ or ‘salary’– it’s more to do with your personality, interests, and hobbies and of course, what you are good at and how you can get there in the first place.

Top Tips

Here are some tips to help you get started on your research and find out what can help you make that decision about your course choice and career option — take a look at Parts 1 to 3 here: https://www.wikihow.com/Choose-the-Right-Career

Think you might change your mind?

Don’t worry if you change your mind about a course or subject, a career doesn’t develop overnight so you can always change a course at enrolment. It is important though that you do apply for subjects you like and those that match up to your career plans.
