When you select your career, theres a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position.

26、If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the jobs pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a few of those main areas; 1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people? There are

27、isolating（使孤立）jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy.
