Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has prompted many of us to re-consider our career path. A common refrain from students knocking on our (virtual Zoom) door has been: “The pandemic has given me time to think, and I’ve come to realize that I want to pursue work that I’m passionate about. How do I go about doing that?” This comes amidst a growing body of research highlighting the beneficial effects of pursuing your passion at work, including higher job performance, job satisfaction, and career earnings.
