IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO START OVER
"From the second I walked into that building and said 'Hi, this is who I am, and this is what I need,' I felt like I was embraced."
At 70 years old, Levi decided he wanted to pursue a different career. He turned to Ignite for help. See what he has to say about his career coach’s role in his success.
DEAR CAREER COACH
What's the best way to explore my career options?
Talk about it! Sure, completing personality assessments and committing to self-reflection are important steps to this process. Researching growing fields and following your favorite companies are also great ideas. However, if you still feel stuck, honest conversations about your values, interests, and skills will allow you to expand your horizons. Conduct informational interviews or work with a career coach to discover paths you might never have considered on your own.
