5 Essential Career Resources

Everyone wants to make the right career move. It can be a lateral transition to something more fulfilling, or another step up on the career ladder. No matter what direction you chose on your professional path, below are some essential career resources to guide you along the way. 

1. Research Potential Career Companies

You can dive in deeper to reviews from top job posting sites like Indeed, Glassdoor, or Google Reviews. Pages like these allow you to see if your potential employer of interest is out there, which positions are open, and see how they rank among their peers by their current and former employees. 

2. See What is In Demand in Your Area

If you are unsure of where to even start your career path you can use a government site like the U.S. Department of Labor Statistics as a resource to find what jobs are trending in your area. The site also provides a handbook if you are starting or looking to change your career path. 

3. Education

Once you have decided on your next career move, check out Study.com for a few links and resources to find out what kind of education is needed. What you may have thought was an extensive program may not be. This will help you to cement the next step on your path. 

4. Compensation/Salary Guides
