so the UK government is concerned that a lot of jobs won't come back after Covid and people should think about retraining. To do so they've created an on-line assessment to find out what job they think might suit you. nationalcareers.service.gov.uk Out of vague interest I just completed it. In the Leisure sector my top 6 recommendations are: Football referee Bingo Caller Fitness Instructor Croupier Lifeguard Racehorse Trainer I was hoping for "Manager of a wargames shop" or "professional figure painter"

I just checked their suggestions for a Government job. Top 3 choices : Environmental Health Officer Royal Marines Officer Prison Governor If I don't like them then maybe Neighbourhood Warden Civil Enforcement Warden ( we used to call them traffic wardens!) RAF non-commissioned Aircrew (that's a bit rich – I'd want in to the Officers Mess!) |

Under Science and research my top job recommendation was Astronomer. It said I might have to work nights. No…really…it really said I might have to work nights as an astronomer. Guess we didn't get the funding for the radio telescope…. |

Under Education it thought maybe Higher Education Lecturer or Primary School Teacher. That certainly runs the gamut of possibilities. Under Retail it thought I might make a good Travel Agent. Yup, with 80% of flights grounded, hotels and resorts closed across the world I should retrain to sell holidays. That sounds like a solid career move |

It's not just me I'm glad to say: link I like Dr Kate Devlin who is an Artificial Intelligence specialist….the Retrain advice was – DJ or Boxer. Quite a lot of people seem to be getting Lock-Keeper. Not too many Hansom Cab drivers or Wheelwrights….. |
