Your career in business
Business is an increasingly important activity throughout the world today. Consequently, the opportunities for a business career have grown in variety and number. Originally the word "career” meant "road” or "path”; today it means a "progress through life” or "job path”.
There are four broad fields, or areas, of business that offer exciting careers: management, marketing, accounting, and finance. Within each of the field there are specific jobs in which one can specialize. For example, in marketing a person can work in market research, advertising, buying, selling or distribution.
Jobs in business range from administration to general clerical work. These works exist in both the smallest and the largest companies. Some typical occupations are cashier, purchasing agent, typist, and complaint clerk. This cluster includes word processing, accounting and financial detail, management, personnel, and materials and product handling. Although most jobs are done indoors, mail carriers and material handlers often work outside.
Many of the occupations - managers, accountants, analysts - require higher education, while the others - secretaries and clerks - at least secondary school. In choosing a business career, you’d like to receive answers to several questions. Firstly, does the work interest you? Are there any areas of business for which you have an aptitude or special capability? What are the opportunities, such as salary, chance for advancement, and for the job? Answers to these questions and careful planning will help you to choose a successful career in business.
