Most of the emails I get from people asking for advice about their employment situation stem between a confusion between what a job is and what a career is. Being conscious of these values—the importance, worth, or usefulness of something—can give you much greater odds of not only avoiding a job that makes you miserable but also finding a job that actually brings you joy—two things the entire job-seeking universe desires. That’s because people are happier when their value system aligns with their job and career choices , says Jaime Klein, founder of Inspire Human Resources, a New York-based HR consulting firm.
Key Difference: Jobs are often activities that are done in exchange for money. Some of these so-called jobs involve assembling crafts, stuffing envelopes, data entry, or even bill processing. The “employer” requires an upfront payment for instructions about the position, required software, or materials. Or the employer may require a “subscription fee” or initial start up fee be paid before they send any information to the Job Seeker. Once payment is made, the Job Seeker is told that the materials and information will be mailed or emailed to them within several business days.
It sometimes seems like the terms “job,” “occupation,” and “career” mean the same thing. Further complicating matters is the fact that work values aren’t universal. What’s important to one person may not be important to someone else,” says Karen Litzinger, a business etiquette and career coach in Pittsburgh. And to add to the mystique, your work values can change over time: People right out of college are often focused on getting a high-paying job so they can pay back their student loans, but that focus can shift later in their career,” says Litzinger.
