5 Careers for People Who Love Autonomy

#4. Pilot

Do you crave for complete control over everything and aspire to land a job wherein you will have a lot of responsibilities? A career as a pilot can be just the thing that satisfies your hunger to be in command.    

As a pilot, you will have to be on top of your game most of the times and will have a lot of responsibilities on your plate. You will have to fly the metal beast, plan the course, conduct safety checks, and last but not the least; never let the burden with regards to safety of each and every soul on the plane weigh you down. 

The educational requirement to land a job in this line of work varies from one country to another. In India, secondary schooling (10+2), plus possession of commercial pilot license is enough to become a pilot. However, most employers prefer to hire candidates with an Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree from a civilian flying school.
