Trades
The construction industry is not as busy as it used to be. There is work in updating older buildings. There is a demand for such skilled workers as tool and die makers and industrial electricians. The automotive industry is also growing. Computers are found in many places, including garages and vehicles. Mechanics need to have the skills to work with these computers.
Job Shadowing/Work Experience
You should get as much information as you can about any jobs you are interested in. One way to do this is through what is called job shadowing. This means you spend anywhere from a half day to a week or so with a worker. This will give you some idea of what the worker does. It could also help you find out if you would like a particular job or not.
