I came across a website called oneweekjob.com and found it fascinating! The website created by Sean Aiken shows his career journey in a truly unique way. Instead of just settling for a job right out of college, he has dedicated 52 weeks to work in 52different jobs. At his website, he documents every stop on his journey in a very well done video on his experiences. If you are looking for a job in Orlando or want a better job, I think you will find some great information at this website.
So what can you learn from Sean’s career journey? I found that answer by watching his videos on the different jobs he has already completed. He has had many different jobs like aquarium host, brew master, Radio DJ, tattoo artist, florist, dairy farmer and many more. Once you go to the site, click on the video about a career you may be interested in and learn the job in a whole new way.
But what intrigued me the most about Sean’s work happened after I watched quite a few of the videos. While Sean was entertaining, I really thought the business owners, managers and coworkers at each job provided awesome career insight. In the “baker” video clip below, the owner talks about her passion for cooking and how she transformed it into her career! You can SEE the excitement in her career choice. You will find others who share their road to a successful career.
I really think your career should be one you will really like. Hopefully, Sean’s journey will give you a better perspective to help you in your own career!
Here is another article from the New York Times this week on Sean.
