Need advice?


I'm a 45 year old female interested in changing careers. Currently, I work as a social worker. I need to know what is a good career for someone my age to switch over to. Please note I am not interested in being a nurse.

You have another 20 years to work so don't consider yourself old. For a 45 year old to offer 20 years is more of an advantage than a 20 year old being able to give 2-3 years before getting married, relocating, having children, etc. Your age is your advantage. If you have a college degree so much the better... if not consider getting one. A good job that anyone can transfer to is sales. Find the right product and company which you can give 100% passion to. Don't say you don't like sales... you do it every day when you sell your ideas to people. Have you thought about getting into counseling? Have you thought about your own business? Have you considered teaching??? Only YOU know what's right for you. Open your mind and heart to new challenges.

get a 3 year corse in law and be a lawyer, you get paid greatly u will b loaded.
and the job seems quite interesting.
