What are my chances of finding employment at 53?

Robert P asked:


After 20 years in the military and 6 years civilian employment I find myself having to look for a job again. It’s going on 3 months now and I have put in countless on-line resumes and haven’t even got 1 interview. I really need a job because I am sick and tired of sitting at home doing nothing every day. I am about to go stone crazy now. Is there some kind of outlet for veterans/retired military to go to in situations like this. I really need help here. I am worrying my butt off.

Whats the career that helps out in the making of consumer electronics? What is that profession called?

MightyMan50 asked:


I was pondering the other day about what career I would like to take up when I get out of high school and realized that I do have an interest in the making of consumer electronics (Like mp3 players, and portable devices. Not so much computers). What kind of professions are there that would help in the making of this kind of stuff? Can someone give me a list of careers around this area and tell exactly what they do? Thanks in advanced for your answers.
I also would like to know what colleges would be good for this field and what courses in High School I should take. I know I’m just a freshman but I want to be prepared when I leave for a college.
Thanks for the answer marystoy_2000. I understand a little more about what i’m asking now. What if I wanted to design the housing of the product and how its organized?
Also, what would it be called if I wanted to be the Project Manager?

What are some good career options for someone interested in the medical field?

Random B asked:


I am interested in changing careers from a school counselor to something in the medical field. I enjoy the helping aspect of the field as well as am interested in its investigative nature and of course pay. However, before I go adding anymore debt to my already ridiculous student loans I need to figure out exactly what career path I should follow. I know it seems sensible to go the psychiatrist route with my background but I’m not to into it anymore. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what some possible careers may be. Anything you offer will be a great help thanks!

What is a practical career choice for someone about to graduate high school who is having a baby?

natashaiera asked:


It has always been my dream to be a lawyer, but now that I am pregnant i’ve realized that becoming a lawyer is going to be completely impractical. I’ve always put my expectation very high for myself, and even though i’m having a baby at a young age, I still believe I can be very successful in life. Can someone please tell me what a reliable career choice would be for my situation? A career that maybe would not require any internships or a career that I would be able to get right after college?
