Introduction and Request for Career Tools

Hello!

To introduce myself, I'd like to begin with my background: I'm a Finance graduate (Concordia University, '13) who has experience in retail banking, commercial banking, and managing employees. My family was deeply involved in the clothing industry in Montreal, Canada before acquiring real estate properties. I am in a transitional phase, open to all opportunities. Despite having a degree in Finance, I would not necessarily like to restrict myself to finance. I am an adaptive learner and can grasp concepts in any discipline with ease. The technical aspects on job hunting are a challenge, of course, but I have no doubt I will learn those skills as well.

To start, I'm calling on the community to recommend any online career assessments in order to narrow my focus, as I have been a little scatterbrain of late and my field is too broad.

Best regards and happy hunting!
