I think I would want to be a Human resource manager. The more I learn about it, think about it, the more I want to pursue a career in human resources. I know it wouldn't be easy and I know I wouldn't be a manager right from the start but I think I would enjoy a career in human resources. what is your dream job?

My dream job is pretty much anything that is full time, pays at least $20 an hour, allows overtime, and has great benefits. Happy mylotting!

What are you waiting for? Work towards it. It is always good to know what you like to do. Most people don't. Remember your post (this post) whenever you face difficulties. Regardless of it being a dream job, some days it will be a nightmare. Do not give up. Stick on to what you love to do and you will succeed. The factor that causes the nightmare are usually people more than situation. Do not let them distract you from your goal. My dream job would be one to encourage others. But I don't think it pays well enough to sustain. Ha ha..

Your right. Hopefully one day. I am getting a minor in human resources. I have noticed a few people discouraging me lately. Maybe I just want talk to them about my career and make the decisions for myself.

My dream job is actually to be an Astronomer. Nothing makes me feel so good that to gaze and study the universe and all those heavenly-bodies. But of course, I know that I can never take Astronomy in my home country, so I just took up Accountancy instead. But hey, they sound the same, haha! I know that being an Astronomer is my childhood and ultimate dream job, but that doesn't mean that I don't love what I do know.

Well I am glad that you like what you do now. It's good to have a backup plan. I hope that you can one day become an astronomer, or at least enjoy it in your free time.

for me, i want to be a businessman, although my course is related in computer, but i want to work as a businessman like my father, because for me, this job is challenging.

My dream job is one that lets me do what I love and what I'm passionate about. It's the kind of job that makes me feel fulfilled with every accomplished task, where I get paid as a welcome bonus. :)

My dream job would be Criminal profiler... I majored in forensic psychology & even went to police academy but it really didn't work out... I've worked on few cases, alongside a professional of course, for my co-op in college & loved it...

That sounds really cool. I live forensic movies and television shows. I don't know if I could see and deal with the details of this particular job though. I get sick when I see gory details, and I don't know that I could deal with the emotional aspect of this particular job.

I would like to become a psychologist or a psychoterapist, that would be my dream job. I don't think that I will be able to become a psychologist because you need a really high grade point average in my country and my grades are just average. It would probably be easier to become a psychoterapist and I sometimes think about that. At the moment I don't have the money to pay for that education, but I think that it might be possible for me to take that education one day. I would love to have that kind of job. I have had many jobs where I worked with people, and I have enjoyed all of them, but I think that a job as a therapist would be even more interesting.

I think that can be a very rewarding job as a psychologist. I actually took a psychologist class in school, but didn't do so well in the class. It was one of the few classes I had difficulty in. Guess I won't be a psychologist! That is okay with me though because it wasn't my dream job. Hopefully you will be able to start somewhere sooner or later. Good luck!

My dream job is to be a farmer, naturopathic doctor, and medicine man basically because my biggest dream is to be able to make herbal medicine and different supplements. I'm currently enrolling into Bastyr university where I'm going to pursue my bachelor's degree in herbal sciences. Then I'm going to move on to take the naturopathic doctor program. I really want to be able to own a really big farm though too so that way I can grow mu own medicinal plants and can grow enough produce to hopefully create a charitable type organization. I would love it to become a non-profit kind of business and I would just love to be able to help the world as much as possible through these dream jobs.

Good luck. I am currently studying for my bachelors and I am getting closer to graduation. I wish you luck in your path to becoming a farmer, doctor, and helping people with medicine. we all need medicine at one point in our lives. I am sick with a cold right now so I need cold medicine.

I am happy to see a discussion on the dream job, everybody should have a dream job for them. If I have a dream job then I will be more happy and satisfied with it. I will be more productive to the job and myself. I have the dream of being a very good and effective Civil Engineer who can help almost everyone seeking help with the Civil Engineering works. I have a degree in Civil Engineering, and I want to go for the higher studies too. I must have a good income coming from it too, because I have to establish the required instruments and laboratories for doing the further work in this field.

Good luck in furthering your studies. I agree it is important to have a dream job. Not everyone knows what they want to do for a living, or has a dream job. I can understand that. I'm glad I know which field I want to be in, and that I do have a dream job. I have a degree in my field, but I am currently getting a higher degree as well. I'm hoping I can further my studies, and gain experience. I would like to eventually go to graduate school.

I used to be in Human Resources and I can tell you that it is a challenging job. However, I did enjoy the years in the said department especially when it comes to training and education. We really did have a busy time particularly when the company was applying for ISO certification. Everything has to be documented with procedures listed down in a systematized process. The job used to be monotonous until the ISO certification from which we learned a lot. It was a good experience but I guess I wanted a change of scenario. 20 years was a long time and I wanted to try something different.

Having a challenging job/career doesn't upset me. I just don't want to be limited. I have my associates in business administration. I am currently studying for a bachelors in business administration with a major in management and a minor in human resources. I am also looking for entry level jobs right now. I thought about getting my Masters in human resources if that is possible. If not, maybe another degree in it. I really enjoy my human resource classes so far, and think I would really enjoy a career in it. I understand and see how it can be challenging. I know certain if not all HR jobs require a lot of qualifications and it can be somewhat hard to get into, keep up with, and be challenging. Thank you for your input, I really do appreciate it.

I would love to be a lawyer! I have always found the law to be so interesting. I have always found the fact that it's supposed to be definite yet contains so many loopholes so exciting. I would love to see the process of how connecting things may help save a person's life or dignity.

I don't think I would like being a lawyer. I took business law in school and It was one of the classes I did not care for. At the same time when I learn about laws dealing with human resources I enjoy it and I am excited to learn more. Everyone is different, and I think that there are many loopholes in laws.

I really want to be a programmer. But I haven't finish my studies yet. As of now I want to be a call center agent.

I was studying programming when I was first enrolled in college. I changed to business administration. I think programming is a very hard career to have, lots of information that you have to learn, and not everyone can grasp and understand the knowledge. Good luck.

My dream job is to work in musical theater, whether on stage or off. From a very young age, I've always loved music. I was especially interested in movie musicals like The Sound of Music, Mary Poppins, Annie, and the like. I'd watch those films over and over until I've memorized them. In school I became active in choirs and took dance classes. And then I had the chance to watch a major production of Miss Saigon and I just couldn't describe the feeling. I was beyond happy, it was euphoric. I knew I wanted to do something that involved musical theater. Sadly, my parents never supported my dream because they don't think it's a practical way of life. But I'm still hoping that someday I'd get to live that dream somehow.

I don't think I could ever work in a theater. I have some social issues, and being in front of all those people would scare me. It sounds very interesting though. I hope that you do get to work in a musical theater someday. Good luck!

My dream job is tourist guide. A tourist guide can travel a lot, see so many places. he can study the various customs of different people. Moreover, he can also explain the wonderful tourist places to the different people who are interested to know. A tourist guide will not be in one place for a long time.

My dream job is to be a professional recording artist and to also own my own online business, which I have started doing both. It seems like I'm making more money online than through music. I especially engrossed myself into one of the businesses when I started doing revenue-sharing and started actually seeing results. Not that I stopped doing music, but I love doing both as my dream job. http://www.addwallet.net/?id=amundy8
