No, your age should not prevent you from changing careers

Are people telling you that you’re too old to switch careers or go back to school? Don’t listen to them! Changing careers is a personal journey and can certainly be beneficial. Here are some things to consider.

Ask yourself some questions

If you’re thinking about changing careers, forget about your age. Instead, ask yourself questions like:

  • Do I have enough support from my loved ones to start over?

  • How can I balance my studies and my family life?

  • Do I already have the skills I need to start a new job?

  • How long would this transition take? In other words, is the time frame realistic?

Whether you’re 35 or 50, a clear, thoughtful evaluation of your situation will help you make the best decision. For guidance and support, reach out to a career counselling service in your area.
