Clues for Changing Careers: Answer Love It, Hate It, Tolerate It

By Shannon | July 13, 2008

To get clues to potential careers you might enjoy when changing careers, it is helpful to go through the process of identifying the type of work (skills and tasks) you enjoy, what you don’t enjoy, and what you tolerate.

As you think about skills and tasks, do not limit yourself to your current job. Include your past jobs, volunteer experience, and any other experience that is relevant. Keep this list handy and add to it as you think of new ideas.

Exercise: Love It, Hate It, Tolerate It

What skills/tasks at work do you love?

What skills/tasks at work do you hate?

What skills/tasks at work do you tolerate (not love or hate)?
