Classes are done. Summer is here. Success!
Now it’s time to find a job…
Have you given any thought to what you want to do after graduation?
Some people have their lives all planned out with a 5-year, 10-year, or even 15-year plan. They know exactly what they want to do and where they want to go. But life doesn’t always follow a script, and plans can change. If you’re not one of those people who have a clear calling yet, that’s totally okay! Sometimes it takes meeting the right people, having the right conversations, or trying out different jobs before you find your true passion. The best part? You’re young, and now is the perfect time to explore and discover what excites you.

Healthcare is one of the fastest growing industries. There is also a shortage of staff members, so there are always openings. Many companies are willing to train on-the-job experience. Plus, pharmacy services are increasing. US Healthcare in 2024 and beyond is increasing. Healthcare is only going to increase with time because people will always need doctors, nurses, and medicine. Especially as the Baby Boomers increase in age, the likeliness of homecare facilities needed will be on the rise. Quality homecare services (like Beacon) will be a place to have loved ones stay. Not only is Beacon Specialized Living a place for employment, but it is also a place of compassion and safety for all loved ones.
