•
A career is the sum of your professional journey. Many people embark on a 
career because it can help them achieve their goals, such as acquiring 
more knowledge and experience, taking on more responsibility, or earning 
higher salaries.
•
But finding a career that best suits you takes time—and your career will 
likely shift throughout your working life. You may end up changing roles or 
industries as your interests, motivations, and needs change. One survey 
from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) found that those born 
between 1957 and 1964 held an average of 12.4 jobs between the ages of 
18 and 54. Data from a separate survey conducted in 2020 found that 
people now stay in each job for around four years [
2
]. Those facts, 
combined with the growth of automation, the rise in gig employment, and 
even underemployment, suggest that careers evolve over time.
•
We’ve compiled seven ways to begin thinking about the best career 
options for you. These are tools and questions meant to structure your 
thought process, so you can determine what careers might suit you best—
and help you achieve your goals.
