You reached the career level you planned earlier than expected. You are trapped in circumstances of location education or recognition. How do you set up your next goal?
simply look around and see, try to ask more than one from your friends within the same field about their psoition and what they do then see which psoition is the one you like the most and when that happens learn what it takes to hold such a position in another place
If you are a technical person, I suggest that you update your skills to master new futurestic technlogies and they are their all the time in IT.
If you are in a managerial role, then you are exposed to all related business processes and you may select the field that you are most interested in (business management, purchasing, production, operations, etc.)
Set up a short term and long term career goal. You would feel like trapped when you don’t have a career plan after5 five years or10 years from now. It’s an open ended plan
Set up a short term and long term career goal. You would feel like trapped when you don’t have a career plan after5 five years or10 years from now. It’s an open ended plan, listen to your instinct and know your passion, study new technologies for options; talk, listen, and learn from IT experts of different fields (I always ask why they choose that IT career path) then assess your skills of what you are capable of.
