Since September I have been working along a syllabise that will help me developed my personal and professional skills so that when I leave this course I am ready and knowledgeable to be able to get myself a job and conduct my self and my attitude in a grown up professional way. Over the next couple of weeks I will start compiling my research that I have found together to put it here on my blog as a reminder for myself and the steps that I have taken for further reference and even maybe they will help other people if they are in my same position or thinking if a degree course is right for them before employability.
To round off the year to this course the class have been asked to write a report of their career plan. For me I think I should find this ask simple as it is something I focus and research often, seeing what my options are and what people want from me as the employee. I have a few different career paths that I think I would like to try my hand at so for my report I think I may chose one and see what ways I can get into that job, what is required of what, what is the job description, is it really the right job for me.
I my opinion it would be hard to say today what it is that I am going to do for the rest of my life, I could do everything possible to get my dream job and in the end it still may not happen or on the other hand I could get the job and six months down the line decide it isn't for me after all. But that life, and if im honest im just excited to get out and start living it, and to work in the industry that I have been preparing for most of my life!! For me it will all be a great set of learning curves and experiences which will hopefully all pull together in order to shaping my career.
So.... my career path options are;
I would like to work either in London or with a touring theatre production company for plays and musicals. If I am to look at this for my report I would definitely have to find out what key roles are needed within the costume department and which I feel but be most suited to me.
My second option for a career path has stemmed from a long life dream of working in the Walt Disney parks (preferable Florida, you cant beat the sun :p) Again I would like to explore the different job roles there are and what I would need to bring to the Disney company. As this job would mean moving countries I would also have to investigate how I would go about that, and are there any trail periods available to see if I like that company and if they like me?
It really excited me that I am starting to explore all these fields right now as I well and truly feel ready to start my career!!
If anyone has any websites or contacts or information that they think would be helpful for me while I am doing my report and for general research purposes please feel free to comment or contact me, every little bit helps, I'll keep everyone up to date in the mean while :) Thanks
