hey everybody don georgevich here with
job interview tools and today i want to
teach you how to decide
what's the best career choice for you or
what kind of jobs should you be looking
for or even better if you have multiple
job offers how to decide which one to
take
so the reason i want to do this is
because
every single day somebody emails their
resume to me and they say don will you
please take a look at my resume and tell
me what you think i should be doing
or i'll just simply get emails from
people saying don you know what kind of
jobs should i be looking for
or don i got two job offers which one
should i take
and i'll tell you my response in every
one of those situations is very brief i
simply say i don't speculate on what i
think you should be doing
and neither should you listen to the
advice of anyone else who tells you what
they think you should be doing
that is the decision that you need to
make for yourself but the problem is
sometimes people just don't know how to
make that decision so in this video i
want to walk you through a simple
framework that is going to
help you with that decision making and
give you a process that will walk you
through a few questions that will help
you decide
what is probably best for you

and if you find this video to actually
be helpful to you please give it a
thumbs up i'd appreciate it so let's
dive right in being faced with a career
choice of you know
what to do i mean it's such a big
decision because it's going to affect
you for the rest of your life when you
make this decision you're kind of
deciding this is what i plan to do for
the rest of my life and that you that
decision can be so difficult for people
because
they don't know what to do maybe they
have too many options
and
they ask for help
because they don't know how to make the
decision i don't think they're actually
looking for someone to tell them what
they should be doing though there's a
lot of people out there that just love
to tell you
what they think you should be doing
i've heard it my whole life don you're
really good at this you should be doing
that don you should do this don you
should do that and i'm sure you're no
different on people there's i'm sure
there are people in your life friends
and family that are just throwing all
kinds of advice at you about you know
what you should do what you should be
doing maybe you should start that
business maybe you should go to medical
school maybe you should be a lawyer
maybe you should be a doctor maybe you
should be a computer programmer
it just goes on and on and on and on and
you're like wow you know that's
that's a lot of stuff there it's a lot
of information how do i process that
and the thing is you can't
i i think the worst thing you can do
is ask for the advice of someone else or
even take one of those tests that tell
you
what you know
it thinks you should be doing well you
know you scored you know 65 and all
these different areas you know you
should be a computer programmer and
you're like i barely know what computer
programming is well if the test says
that's what i should be doing maybe
that's what i should go do
and i think that's wrong i just totally
think all that's wrong i think your
decision needs to come from inside
and i'm gonna walk you through
how to get there
and when i'm when i'm faced with this
decision even though i'm not looking for
jobs anymore i'm still faced with
decisions about you know what to do
what
what's next in my
my life in my career
and and i always come back
to
a few questions
and one of them is it's one of my
favorite questions
which one
which you know job or thing or career
you know whatever it is which one will
help me grow the most
which one will help me grow the most
so
ask yourself that question when you're
looking at different career choices or
different jobs or what kind of jobs you
should be looking for
ask yourself which one of these will
help me grow the most which one
will challenge me
the most
because
i mean i mean the whole point of living
being alive is to grow i mean if we're
not growing
you know
we're dying so
i want to grow i want to grow every day
i want to be better
than what than who i was yesterday and
and i know you you're the same way
um and i know that because you're here
and you're watching me today and you're
trying to make yourself better you're
faced with these decisions
that you just don't have answers to and
no one has told you
how to
how to answer these questions for
yourself
so ask yourself you know which of these
positions is going to challenge me the
most i mean if you're looking at some
jobs where
maybe there's there's not a lot of
ceiling there's nowhere to go there's
just a lot of lateral different moves
and then maybe some other positions
maybe those are a little bit scarier
because you know they they can go deeper
and maybe there's some uncertainty with
those
and you know maybe
maybe those are going to push you
outside of your comfort zone
and as being humans
we often don't like to be pushed outside
of our comfort zone because there's
uncertainty there we don't know what to
expect
so we gravitate towards something that
we're more comfortable with that we can
understand and that we can see and we
can see it all the way through and it
feels good to us in the moment
and
a lot of times people make those
decisions
and they may not be the best choice for
them i i don't know i mean some people
some people don't want to be challenged
every day
some people would rather just you know
be on easy street here and because
not that they don't want to be
challenged but maybe they have other
challenges in their life right now and
so having a career that's also
constantly challenging them isn't good
for them
at this time
but i'm assuming that everything in your
life right now is good and that you're
looking for a career choice that is
going to challenge you that's going to
take you to the next level i just don't
think that you've you thought to ask
yourself those questions so you know
which one will help me grow today which
one will challenge me the most which one
will make me
better
than i am today those are the questions
that you need to ask yourself and
there's even another question
which one
of these things
will serve the greater good
and here's what i mean by that let's say
you're faced with
a job let's say you have two job offers
and one of them is from company a and
let's just say they make boxes and they
make envelopes for amazon
and let's say this is an accounting
position so you get an accounting job
and a company that makes boxes and
envelopes
and you know let's say the pay is good
let's say the pay is sixty thousand
dollars and then you have an offer from
company b and let's say it's in the
accounting department as well doing the
same kinds of things but let's say
company b makes medical devices that
improves the lives
of millions of people
and those medical devices could be
anything they could be heart monitors
they could be insulin injectors you know
whatever but let's just say they they
make medical devices that improves the
lives of people so that they can live
more comfortably
so
which one serves the greater good you
have company a that makes boxes and you
have company b that makes medical
devices that makes life better for
people obviously
company b
is the one that serves the greater good
so that's just another question that you
can ask yourself you don't have to use
it but it's just it's another one to
throw into the framework of questions to
ask yourself that will help guide you so
if you're not sure which one to take
maybe you just maybe you pick the
company maybe you pick the career choice
you know the one that serves
the greater good that serves the world
in a better way instead of you know one
instead of one that doesn't not that the
other one is a bad thing i mean this is
all coming down to you
and and what's important to you
and
and that's what this framework is all
about because you're here today because
you're not sure
you're not sure what to do but
i'm hoping that with this framework this
is going to help guide you through the
process of deciding and so let's just
say
you're deciding which career path to
take
so do this get out a piece of paper and
write down
maybe five different career paths that
are somewhat interesting or appealing to
you
and
or it could be 10 it can 5 10 whatever
and then number them in order of
ones that make you feel good
be like i want to be doing that i'd love
to be doing that no matter how crazy it
is like it could you know
one of them could be you know a hard
surgeon or whatever it doesn't matter
but
write them down on a piece of paper and
then number them from one to tennis to
you know most important to least
important
and then
use that framework that i just that i
just talked about and ask yourself those
questions
for each one you know which one of those
you know will will help me be better
which one of those will help me grow
which one of those will be which one of
those is going to challenge me the most
which one of those
will make me better
which one of those will serve the
greater good and then ask yourself the
questions
for each of those
different career paths
and then after going through that the
answer
will probably be crystal clear for you
and it'll be very easy to decide
which path you want to go down without
someone else influencing you and telling
you what
they think you should be doing and i've
met those kinds of people i have met
people who
were told that you know you would make a
great nurse you would make a great
doctor and you know go to school and go
do that
and
you know and the person did it because
like well some they they listen to a
trusted
authority in their lives
and someone who told them what they
think they should do so they went off
and did it and you know what happened
when they got there they weren't very
happy
they were miserable
because someone else they let someone
else decide what they should be doing
and i don't want
you to let someone else decide what you
should be doing not me
or anybody else i just want to give you
this framework that's going to help
guide you in your decision-making
process so that it's your decision
because if it's someone else's decision
you won't totally buy into it but if
it's yours
you'll own it and you'll make it happen
and it will become a reality for you
so let's just say you're faced with
two different jobs which one do you take
company a company b
ask yourself the same questions which
ones are going to challenge me the most
which ones are going to make me better
some jobs maybe there isn't a lot of
sealing and other jobs you know there's
a lot more ceiling but there's some
uncertainty and that could that can kind
of scare us away a little bit
but
that's okay
don't be afraid i mean what's the worst
that's going to happen if you take a job
that
you know maybe you're uncertain about
maybe it's going to push you and
challenge you and make you feel
uncomfortable
what's going to happen then
you're going to get better
the job is going to make you get better
it's going to challenge you it's going
to push you so that you're a better
person tomorrow you're better because of
it you're stronger because of it
and you get yourself into a position
where
you start
being a mentor to other people and
helping guide them
in their decision-making process
and and when you follow this framework
you follow this framework about you know
which one is going to challenge me you
know which one is going to make me
better
all of that
comes to a head
when you get the job interview
when they ask you
why do you want to work here
and when they say you know why do you
want to work here you can be like well
here's why i want to work here because
you know this position is going to make
me better i love this kind of
challenging work it pushes me in
directions it stretches me farther than
um then i can do on my own
and
see it all comes full circle
and to help you with that to help you
with the job interview process i want to
give you
a brand new book here
top 10 job interview questions and
answers and this one and the reason
i want to bring this to your attention
is because this teaches you how to
answer why do you want to work here and
when you go through that framework
that's going to condition you and
educate you on
what you want to be doing so when the
employer says why do you want to work
here you can simply say well i want to
work here because this position serves
the greater good because this position
challenged me because this position
makes me better than who i was yesterday
