大家的第一篇关于职业计划的ESSAY大概花多少时间完成？

chantelle

感觉这个象个无底洞，我花了4天完成了COLUMBIA的第一篇ESSAY。 昨天给一个校友看了，说可以提交了，给另外一个校友当年REVIEW 过APPLICATION，他说还没有达到平均的水平，要花很多力气，并且说当年他自己写了1个半月（当年是在职的情况，他本人背景非常强悍，哥大的本科生，自己创办的公司在欧洲，印度中国,北美都有分部。）还有2周就是DEADLINE了，又赶上了圣诞节，不陪家人又说不过去。恐慌郁闷极致！

大家都是怎么熬过来写ESSAY的阶段？

小虾请教各位，这个career goal从哪几方面去写呀？肯定不能说留美？那就回国罗？进公司，企业？做什么职位？可是这个不是空讲么？另外大家都写多少字的哟？

I sensed you are going in a wrong way.

You need to think outside of the boundary of countries, companies, and the number of words. What have you done in your interns and jobs? What is your life purpose? What are the logical connections between your experience and your vision? When you close your eyes and ask yourself frankly, what is your answer? That is where your direction is.

Career goal is inevitably related to a sense of being, a purpose-driven life, and your life's work. After you figure that out, you then come back and break it down to feasible milestones that you plan to achieve during different stages of your career/life. Then put them into words.

Boom...Here you go, you have your goal essay.

thank your for your enlightening sharing, I just do several interns, so it seems a little bit difficult for me to have a detail career goal as a whole,  I am afraid I gonna have a long way to go, btw, your picture, is it Tomhanks? As your name, wish you Top 10
