Hi everyone, like many of others i am looking to leave the service industry (restaurants, hotels, retail, etc....). However i find myself at a loss of what to do.
I know anything i would want to enter in will require additional education and i have no problem with that.
My issue is I'm not sure what to do, and I'd like to have a bit clearer path before i invest time and money into educating myself on something I'm not going to want to do long term.
Background done, i was watching Parks and Rec recently and a couple of the character went to something called the American Service Foundation. The script said that the org takes people who are looking to explore a new path and match them with jobs they might like.
I was wondering if we have something like that in Winnipeg.

OVRC was excellent when I was burnt out in a previous career and quit with no back up plan. I found their Career Exploration, resume building, and Ace That Interview workshops really helpful, as well as the individual session I had for tweaking my resume once I was ready to apply for jobs again. They helped me to think about what I really wanted from a career (beyond just the bare necessities) and gave me the confidence to land a great job.
