What did you want to be when you were growing up? A doctor, an engineer – or maybe a footballer or actor? We all had big plans for our futures and believed there was a dream job waiting for us – one that would pay well and give great job satisfaction. But how realistic was that?

Today, in the UK at least, young people are being warned that some of their career hopes and dreams don’t match the types of jobs available.
