I have been trying to tweek my work at home VA business for 4 years now.
I am having a hard time getting it off the ground. There is nothing I offer that a zillion other people dont do and some probably much better than me!
Since I have been working for the US Census Bureau as a Recruiting Assistant/Examiner I love this type of work. I am out in the public talking to people and meeting LOTS of great individuals.
Maybe just because all of my previous life work experience has been office/customer service/admin assistant type jobs that may not be what I am suited for. I just assumed that I should go with something I have been doing forever
Has anyone run across a web site that lets you test to find the area that suits you best according to your personality?
I don't know how I can incorporate this recruiting experience into a career direction but I have found something I feel passionate about and LOVE doing.
Any suggestions?
Greatfully awaiting any posts.

This probably isn't what you're looking for, but there were a few links that I'm going to check out.

Thanks for your suggestions dognose...I will definetly check your links out!

Wow! Thanks Dognose. Those are excellent website suggestions. I love taking tests (I know I'm weird) and they confirmed that I am in the right line of work. I am going to have my son take a few of these tests too. Maybe they can guide him towards what careers will be best for his personality.

I love taking tests too! Thanks Dognose. I'll get right onto some of these!

What about tapping into the HR field? You could help employers find candidates for their open positions - search through resumes, make interview appointments, etc. What about helping individuals with their resumes and job search? You said you like to work with people, so that is why I thought of that.

I am SURE you are going to find something that suits you. I know where you are coming from. Believe me!

Those tests sound great! I need to go take a look at some of those myself!

Dognose, that was really nice of you. I can't wait to go thru those tonight after the kid goes to bed!!
