This is not unusual in today’s workplace environment in which some experts explain that a career change is more likely to be the rule rather than the exception. David Madison suggests in his article Successful Career and Job Changes that today’s average college graduates, in reThroughout our lives we all look back at the choices we’ve made and reflect upon their impact on who we are and what we have become.
