Already questioning the purpose of her work, she was on a flight sitting next to a Catholic priest who also was formerly an engineer. He told Yollanda about hearing stories of life and career regrets from his parishioners. &#8220;It was a sign,&#8221; Yollanda told Career Buzz listeners (<a href=\"http:\/\/careercycles.com\/from-engineer-to-mandarin-language-school-owner\" target=\"_blank\">Nov. 11, 2015<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>But still she wasn&#8217;t sure. &#8220;I&#8217;ve always loved teaching,&#8221; Yollanda said. Then, at an info session for the B.Ed. program at U of Toronto, another sign. With hundreds of people in the room already, Yollanda sits in one of the few remaining seats, to find sitting next to her, &#8220;another Yollanda, not a common name, and also a female engineer deciding to quit her job to become a teacher.&#8221; This sign clinched it. Both Yollandas resigned from their jobs and became teachers. &#8220;We&#8217;re both happy in our career and have never looked back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>How do the clues apply to you?<\/strong> If you&#8217;re in a career quandary, be inspired by Yollanda&#8217;s stories of noticing signs and clues &#8211; then taking inspired action. The next clue Yollanda followed was the demand for Mandarin language skills. She took inspired action to transfer her teaching skills and founded Mandarin language school, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pandamandarin.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\">Panda Mandarin<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re trying to figure out which signs and clues to follow, get started with an <a href=\"http:\/\/careercycles.com\/career-services-for-individuals\/getting-started\" target=\"_blank\">Exploratory Consultation<\/a>\u00a0with CareerCycles.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to everyone who donated to the CIUT Fall Membership campaign! <a href=\"http:\/\/careercycles.com\/from-engineer-to-mandarin-language-school-owner\" target=\"_blank\">Hear the whole interview<\/a> also featuring powerful moments from Career Buzz over the past six months and a special call with <em>Career Crafting<\/em> author, <strong>Cathy Campbel<\/strong>l.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How did Yollanda Zhang know to quit her engineering job at GE and become a teacher?
