Research consistently shows that people who have specific career goals
achieve far more than those who don't. Whether you're new to your job or an
experienced veteran, it's important to develop and follow defined career goals.
Think about how you might answer the following questions:
- What are your career goals right now?
- What obstacles do you see which may impede you from achieving your goals?
- What are your work strengths?
- What is your long-term career vision?
