© 2015 albert-learning.com TOEIC Reading Comprehension Exercise 11 Read the passage and answer the questions If you want to advance in your career, you will have to make some careful decisions about which jobs you take. Evaluate a job offer for the value it has to your career. It may mean sacrifices at first. You may have to move to a different region or a different country to get a job that is right for you. You may have to work late hours, at least temporarily. You might even have to take a lower salary for a job that offers you the experience that you need.

This will have an effect on the people around you, who will feel as if you are not a part of the team. The best advice is to think carefully before accepting any position and make sure the job is one you want to have.
