Interested in work as an Enforcement Technician, Database Spatial Analyst or Accounts Receivable Collections Officer? How about as a Manager Procurement Agent or Quality Advice Consultant?
Times have certainly changed since school when choosing a profession was a simple business. Kiddies either wanted to be an astronaut, a zoo keeper or -in my case- one of the campy dancers from the Hot Gossip groove troupe on The Kenny Everett TV Show.
I certainly don't remember anyone standing up in careers class and saying, "when I grow up I want to be a PD/H/PE Coordinator or an APS Level 5 (Administrative) Assistent Site Manager or a PeopleSoft 8.8 Analyst/Consultant". Yet these exceedingly odd-sounding jobs now make up the bulk of vocations vacant ads on offer to CV-slinging job seekers.
