Future Careers/Jobs

I'm really passionate about film so I'd love a job in the film industry, I think I'd be good at directing and script writing so I plan to get a job with a film company and work my way up.
Second choice is Optician, I did my work experience at one and found I was really interested plus I enjoy physics. However I'd end up having to take the long route if the film job didn't work out as I don't plan to take 3 A level sciences, but it's still achievable

I'd like to be a scientist, studying medicine. I'd love to find some sort of cure for Cancer.

In 10 years I see myself as a full-time reg in MerPol.

Career is pretty much definitely to be a Software Engineer, i seem to have a talent for it and REALLY enjoy it, so lets see. I see myself in 10 years working as one god knows where but earning something, not exactly thinking ill be at the top already.

Im not really sure what interests me. I've always had an interest in IT, but never had an idea of exactly what i wanted to do in it. At first i thought it'd be web design, but after starting college and beginning to do some coding, i realised that was what i really loved and enjoyed and being good at it always helps.

oh jesus I dread this topic.
I really can't understand how people have decided what they want to do for the rest of their lives when they've probably only lived around a 6th of it. I still feel like I'm about 6 and incapable of making any well thought out and right decisions.

Probably I'll just drift around different jobs never really enjoying anything until I retire into a life of saddening poverty.
Unless I find something I actually can do proficiently.

I can't see myself in ten years. I don't plan that far. Ideally after uni I want to do the JET Programme for five years then after that I would like to pursue a career in journalism if I haven't already devoted myself to something else, but really I don't have a solid career or anything like that in mind. My future is unclear and I think it is needless to plan to plan so far ahead. If I do get on the JET Programme and do stay for the full five years, about the only thing I can see is me pursuing a teaching career in Japan. I wonder if my future will always be so vague.

To be honest, I have no idea. I'm going to start doing UCAS next year and I have no idea what course I'd like to do at uni at all

I'm 19 and I'm not sure what career path I'd be happy to settle with, my options are limited as I don't have thousands of pounds to fork out for uni. I love people who have dream careers, in the past I had my own but I've faced the truth. A good paying job needs good qualifications and that isn't going to happen without having the money or brains for uni. I'm not too fussed about what job I get (if i'm lucky), as long as I can do my job and be happy. I ****** up my career big time when I pissed away all my pre teenage years having fun, it sounds bad but in some sense it was worth it. Yeah I ****** up my dreams but I also had a blast, obviously I wouldn't recommend people to do it and if I had the option I'd go back and go to school everyday, I'm basically trying to defend the fact that not going to school didn't bring all bad, I had fun .

Those reading this who're still in school, don't laze about waiting for people to tell you to go to school, do it yourself because eventually it'll kick you in the ass.

My plans are to get as much education as I can afford and work my ass off in a job that I might not even enjoy. Now, to me, education isn't something that I look for an award in (A job), I just love to have the quality's of knowledge, even if I don't use that knowledge, I still love knowing that I have it if it's needed. Knowing how to fix a computer, knowing how to cook or even knowing how to design a web page to the best of my ability, I love learning new things.

I know I went way off topic. To sum things up, I'll hopefully get a full-time job and any spare cash I earn will go in to night course(s) or the odd class a week. Then perhaps the knowledge that I've gathered in those courses could lead to a better career path.
