Wise mustachians,
I’m looking for career suggestions that suit my skills and interests. I hope to turn up some ideas that might be missing from career sites and books.
I have an aptitude for searching for the right resources, gathering relevant data, compiling it into a spreadsheet, list, or report, and then determining the best option or changes to be made. I’m good at seeing how details affect the big picture and making connections. I do well at hands-on, detailed creative work (ex. sculpting miniatures). I like organizing things. My Myers-Briggs personality type is INTJ.
Ideally, I'd rather not report directly to multiple clients/customers, I'd prefer doing my work, then turning it over to coworkers or supervisors. I'd also rather not manage many underlings.
For the past 7 years I’ve had a job doing billing and scheduling for an equipment repair company. Before that, I worked as a retail assistant manager. I have an associate’s degree in anthropology. I had seriously considered becoming a conservator (preserving artifacts for museums), however education availability and costs and lack of job opportunities in the field have held me back.
Do my interests bring to mind any job descriptions? I’m willing to go back to school/get training. Thanks for your advice.
