Career Decision? More than Just a Pro / Con List

Making a career decision can be agonizing. Whether you are just in the exploration stage, interviewing at several companies, or juggling multiple job offers. Wherever you are on that spectrum this tool could help you.

Many times in our decision making we make a pro / con list. That is a start, but it leaves out an important element–the weight of how important our pro’s really are to us. You see, not everything that we value is valued equally. All the pro’s on your list are important, but if I asked you “on a scale of one to ten, how important is each item” you might assign each a different number, but not all would be a ten. 

 This Career Decision Making document allows you to consider each option against your career values and evaluate how important each really is to you. The next step gives you the opportunity to see just how congruent each option is against what is important to you. 

If you are considering which career to pursue, or which job offer to accept, this is a great tool to assist you in that decision making process.
