A recent thread on Twitter started with a simple question:
“Tell me why you went into your field in 5 words or less.”
The tens of thousands of comments were a rabbit hole of entertainment, but some of the answers were actually quite thoughtful.
A psychiatrist wrote: “I love hearing people’s stories.” The founder of volunteer organization End Climate Silence wrote: “Decarbonize now or we’re dead.”
Finding out why people went into their field is at the heart of my work as a Recruiter. For 30+ years I’ve helped people make smart professional moves based on that motivation.
So what made you do what you do?
Like the psychiatrist on Twitter, I love hearing people’s stories. What’s yours?
