Summary:

The Develop stage is when you take your skills and knowledge to the work place. You’ll gain confidence and will practice the skills you have acquired. This is a period of uncertainty, a time when you are gaining your financial independence and learning about the frustration of getting a job.

Start exploring the workplace, companies, institutions, or trades. You may find yourself changing jobs, roles, or industries to reach the right fit for you. You may also want to develop new skills. And you may feel pressure to balance a career with your life.

You are making new friends, changing cities, and starting life as an independent adult. Financially, you can start to pay back some of your investments you have made. Start small but start now.
