Changing direction 

When it comes to going back to work but you don't want to go back to your old job, why not think about changing direction!  

 

There may not be a better time to change your life. New family, new career, new future. It might be that you have always wanted to try something different but have never had the opportunity, or your old job doesn't offer the flexibility you need now.

This could be the best chance you ever have to take a new direction. You may have been a teacher but want to know other ways of utilising your school experience. It may be that you have done some voluntary work during your time at home and have discovered some skills you never knew you had.

You are in a great position to change you life completely; it may mean a few courses, some vocational training or it could mean devoting a few years to serious studying.

Any change, no matter how small, can seem daunting, even if you have only been out of the workplace for a short time. Take that first step to changing your life by browsing WorkAfterKids for some great ideas and advice!
