Start with the work you enjoy
A useful career plan starts with a clear picture of your strengths. Write down projects you enjoyed, the skills you used and the results you helped deliver. Look for patterns before choosing your next role.
Choose one achievable next step
Compare your experience with several job descriptions. Pick one skill to develop over the next month and find a small project where you can practise it. Keep examples of your work so you can explain your progress in interviews.
Review your priorities
Location, flexibility, team culture and learning opportunities all matter. Decide which are essential and which are flexible. Revisit your plan regularly as you learn more about the roles available.
