All suggested careers will be based on the answers you give to the following questions. To learn more about how to plan your career path in the U.S., see Planning for Success.

If you are unable to pursue relicensure in the U.S. at this time, or if you want to try something new, you may want to explore career options other than your original career.

Employers value your skills as well as your education and professional experience. Identifying your transferable skills* can help you transition to a new career that will still allow you to use your existing education and work experience. [*Transferable skills are skills you have developed in one situation or career which can be transferred to a different one.]

The skills you select here will be used to determine additional career matches.  Select at least 10 skills for best results.

To learn more about transferable skills and how they can help you transition into a new career, see Understanding Related and Alternative Careers.
