Government Careers Advice Questionnaire

[Toodles McGinty]

Anybody tried the new careers advice questionnaire that the government have posted? I assume it's part of the 'Fatima's next job is in cyber...' initiative.

Here: https://beta.nationalcareers.service.gov.uk/

So I thought I'd give it a whirl. I got some interesting results.

Apparently a career as a 'stunt performer' is waiting for me.

Failing that, a hotel porter, museum assistant, a school business manager, a vehicle body repairer or a psychiatrist.

So, stunt woman it is then. I've got knee pads, so I'm well on the way...

Soldier, football referee, horse groom, nail technician, hairdresser, actor, librarian, health service manager - what a load of bo££0cks that service is

Stoopid questions.

I was happy at first with all the caring profession directions until the chef
bit.

Seriously? Just because I answered yes to like following instructions and working as part of a team.

9/10 need to retrain ?
So only 1 tenth of the workforce are in sustainable jobs?

Looks like Boris is already looking at retraining!

I think a career in after dinner speaking is looming in his near future.

No mention of diplomacy????

Emergency services , Law & Legal, Teaching & Education, Travel & Tourism, Business & Finance.

Those seem quite sensible compared to mine.

The variations I got were so wide as to be meaningless, however retail sales did come up, a little further checking and back came the response, everything from till check out operator to retail sales manager, not much difference there then.

Is a spade a shovel, diplomacy is pretending you like something you hate with a passion.

Emergency services , Law & Legal, Teaching & Education, Travel & Tourism, Business & Finance.

That's the same as what I got.

It is a stupid exercise I've never been an office wallah so why would Business and Finance suit me. Teaching and Education no chance I would be sacked after my first encounter with some smart ar5ed kid who thinks they can do as they like.
